Looking Ahead in ’24

All done with the Smiles and Holiday Parties? The Spring in the Nokomis has a lot of really fun stuff on the calendar.

Our Fortieth Anniversay is This Year! Mary's started to get the formal events organized, see what she has going at the next meeting and at this post. Nothing's entirely certain yet, but likely we'll have a defined event (dinner, party, or something else) and some solid recognition at the Anniversary Picnic in June. The Club doesn't feel that old until you realize the Club and Star Trek 3 The Search for Spock opened the same weekend in 1984.

Conventions? There are a few. Notably the MarsCon in March. Come to the January meeting to hear how the Nokomis can participate. Later, we'll get set for ConVergence in July.

Community Service? We have Feed My Starving Children, Blanket Making for Kids, and a blood drive or two. The Twin Cities Regional Science Fair needs hands for setup, logistics, and judging too.

Parties? We have the Valentine's Dinner, St. Patrick's Day (Eve) Beer Tasting, maybe a Journey To Babble the Next Generation. And like I said, the 40th Anniversary Events.

The calendar's up to date and the excerpt below is right as of the newsletter date. Be sure to mark your own calendars, and check back to the Website for changes and for any signup sheets tied to them.
