Welcome to our New Hamburg Site. We are a group of men who have adopted the principle of our brethern ROMEO clubs and refer to ourselves as "Retired Outstanding Men Eating Out". Our community is the first Chapter from Canada to be recognized by The ROMEO CLUB Organization. We are delighted to be part of this outstanding concept.
New Hamburg ROMEOS Calling
Initially the group was only composed of men from one street of the community but it has expanded to other areas as the need required. Initially the ROMEOS were run as a unique and isolated entity because the members had not been exposed to or were aware of the Organization's history and development. It only adopted the ROMEO name when it was found and referenced in a novel read by a member's wife.
The founding members then proceeded to allocate 'call signs' to each new participant based upon the Greek alphabet, Alpha to Omega, and grant a scroll to the new members.
Presently, we have 20 members as of January 1, 2013. This reflects a fluctuation of new and removed members from our inception. We may have to find a new alphabet very soon to maintain newer 'call signs'!!

ROMEO Lunch - March 3, 2011
It's that time again for all good ROMEOS to come together
for fellowship and cheer.
This Thursday, it has been determined by the Committee,
to grace the premises of The Chop House in Wellesley,
where the proprietor will place before the prestigious group,
a feast that becomes our station.
Topics for conversation will include the following:
1. Access to the new ROMEO Blogger as a means to update
the members on stuff.
2. New business from members.
3. The usual gossip about absent members and
4. Topical jokes with a sexual overtone.
Transportation will be coordinated, prior to embarking on our quest.
Remember, 'If you're not the lead dog, your view never changes.'
