Events and Meetings

In the summer months, the club meets every Tuesday evening at the west pond in Andrew Hayden Park (on Carling Avenue in Nepean) for "running" meetings. The club also participates in a variety of community events throughout the summer.

Our 2010 calendar of community events is expected to include these great activities.
