Mark your calendars for Thursday, September 1. That’s the start of the 2011-2012 clinic season for Seattle-North (probably the start for all of Fourth Division as well).

Typically our September program revolves around “what did you do (railroad-wise) this summer?” If nothing else, you’ll hear about the National Convention. Several of our clinic attendee where there.

This is a quick reminder about the upcoming meeting. I know I still owe you a write-up from our June road trip and a few photos.  Sorry, I’ll get to those when I can.

If you got your T-TRAK kits or have decided to build your own, we’d like to see them (in running order) at the September meeting. By the way, I still have a few T-TRAK module kits. Contact me for availability and prices.

We meet at the Ronald United Methodist Church, 17839 Aurora Avenue North, Shoreline, WA. That is on the west side of Aurora (State Route 99) between 175th and 185th Streets and, more specifically, between the Cadillac dealer and Deseret Industries. Note that there is still a lot of construction along this stretch of Aurora. You need to be going southbound (so you can make a right-hand turn into the church driveway immediately after passing the Deseret location) because you can no longer make cross-traffic turns on Aurora.

Meetings are the first Thursday of each month, except July and August. However, in June we usually do a tour. For regular meetings enter the lower level of the church from the parking lot at the rear. Doors open around 7:00 PM, announcements at 7:15, and the program starts about 7:30. Hope to see you there or at least sometime on down the line.
