Please note that Nov 5 free play was cancelled, due to City’s booking change.
The following play sessions at W.P. Wagner High School have been set aside for the EDBA 55+ Free Play program for the remainder of 2016:
1. Sunday, Oct 30, Noon to 2 p.m.
2. Saturdays, Nov 19 and Dec 3, 2 to 4 p.m.
Again these sessions are open to the public and not just EDBA members. Please let your members know and feel free to pass this on to other interested parties.
Many thanks to John Lee for his time and effort continuing to supervise and promote the 55+ Free Play Program.

We’ve double-checked with EDBA and they’ve checked with the school… I have been told that WP Wagner is available for IBC this Friday, September 9, 2016.
For those who ended up at the school yesterday, and for those who wanted to play, please accept the City’s apology for not notifying us on time.
Best Regards,
Jenny
