The games against SFU (Sat. 21st Nov) have been called off.

We tried to get another venue, but everything fell through. We will try to get this game rescheduled as soon as possible.

But, on the up side, the Scribes Annual PUB CRAWL is happening tomorrow. The plan is to meet up at St. Augustine’s on Commercial Drive (formerly the End Cafe) at 1pm for a lunch time beverage and then go from there. We will be gone by 2pm.
As with all pub crawls there are some rules, besides drinking.
* Dress code – Hawaiian Shirt
* You may be nominated to do a Joke, a Story or a Song. After your turn, then you nominate.
* Be on time to the first pub
Please let anyone else that is interested in going on the Public House Stroll know about it. The more the merrier.
