New Year Greetings from CASLIS Ottawa

Hello CASLIS Ottawa members.

I hope you are all having a happy and healthy holiday season and preparing for a joyous new year.

My new year is full and I like to be organized right at the start, so I figured I would send out the Calendar of events for the next few months of CASLIS activities for all of you to consider.

On behalf of all of us on the executive I wish you a Happy New Year, and look forward to seeing you at our events.

Sincerely
Jennifer Gavin,President
