TRAILBLAZERS Executive is inviting everyone – members, Captains, Family & Friends to our Annual Open House and AGM on:
Date: Saturday, April 5th, 2025.
Open House: 10 AM-12 PM
AGM: 12 PM to 1:30 PM
Location: CNIB Hub (same place as last year)
1525 Yonge Street (north of St. Clair)
Light refreshments will be provided for the open house, and pizza will be provided for lunch for those who stay for the AGM.
RSVP please and thank you for both the Open House and AGM by reaching out to president@trailblazerstandem.org.
Stokers and Captains, this is a perfect time to meet and greet new and past members and Captains. So don’t miss this event.
Memberships are due at the Open House and AGM. Memberships are still $50. Do you know that our membership fee has not changed in over 23 years.
And if you have a brother or sister or even a cousin who wish to try out tandem riding, they are more than welcome to come out and do an orientation.
Everyone is expected to do an orientation before we match you with a Stoker or a Captain.
If anyone has any further questions, don’t hesitate to contact us at president@trailblazerstandem.org.
