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, January 10, 2013

Today we lunched at Molly Blooms Pub in Kitchener.

We arrived before 12:00 noon and found the pub opens at Noon.
As we were all assembled outside and waiting, the manager graciously
opened up before time to let us get seated.
By that time we had chosen our drinks and were served promptly.

We greeted our newest member, Ken Edgar to the Chapter with a certificate 
scroll presented to him by his sponsor Wray, which he gladly accepted.

Next up was Beta Ron who entertained the group with his selected jokes.

Not be be outdone, our new member Ken then proceeded to deliver his own.

The manager later advised us that since we were a regular group, that we could
expect a 10% discount off our bills in the future, if we returned.
Food was the regular fare as offered at all Molly Blooms.

In attendance were:

Ken Mulholland; driver
Carl, Dennis, Ron

Wray: driver
Ken Edgar,Jack Davies

Bob: driver
