April 2020 Meeting Cancelled

And here is the official wording emailed to OWA members from Don Duchesne, OWA Secretary:

Based on the recommendation from Ottawa's Medical Officer of Health we are canceling the April meeting for the Ottawa Woodworkers Association. Keep an eye on your email as we will try our best to keep you up to date.

PS: We are still looking for suggestions for presentations. Even if it can't be given this season we can put the idea in the hopper for next fall.

Thanks for your understanding,
Don Duchesne
OWA Secretary
