2027 CALENDAR UPDATE The status of the 2027 calendar has been changed from cancelled to delayed. Due to a handful of messages asking for the calendar, I will do a 2027 calendar. Still only 4 people sent it pictures, of which 2 sent the same pictures a few years ago. I know of at least two members, (oops, sorry, one refuses to be a REMA member) that have tons of pictures but won’t send them. The lack of interest makes the creative process exponentially difficult. If you have a picture you want to be considered please send it in asap. The format will change and less pictures will be used but I won’t disappoint. The calendar will be ready for the Christmas lunch.
