Election of Office Bearers
& FIRST EVER Scottish Karaoke!!

The next meeting of H&T will be on Monday, March 29 at 7:30 PM in the Churchill Room at The Black Labrador, 4100 Montrose. There will be a short business meeting to report on the 2009-10 year and the Burns Supper followed by the election and swearing-in of the new slate of office bearers for 2010-11. There will then be a Scottish Karaoke complete with a DJ. Judging by the success of the sing-along at the January meeting this should be a lot of fun. I encourage everyone to attend and bring some friends along.
