New Hamburg ROMEOS Calling: Friday, September 21, 2012

New Hamburg ROMEOS Calling

The original purpose of the group was to bring together new neighbours who had moved from other parts of the Province of Ontario and also from other Provinces of Canada to our community of New Hamburg.

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, September 20, 2012

Greetings to all ROMEOS,

Yesterday we convened our bi-weekly luncheon at a new venue in Kitchener.

The Borealis Grille and Bar is a new concept that attempts to use only selected
local producers in their kitchen. As well they supply only local micro-brewers
and their products.

The whole experience was greatly appreciated by the attending members.
It will surely be on the list for future lunch sites and would be a nice venue
for dinner with your Family.

It was also an important outing for one of our original members, who is
struggling with some health issues. As such we enjoyed having Ray's company
after such a long time when he was unable to attend.

To all the members who assisted with his needs, many thanks for your help.

Attending Members

Thanks to John(Kappa) Matthews
