Sorry to say that conditions down here will not allow us to hold the April 28th Meet at Fort Erie (Black Creek) This has been a wet spring and we had 2 1/2"of rain here last weekend. It is not dry enough to cut any grass, mine, or the field and the ground is like a wet sponge. We will re-group for May 19th

| THE WEATHER FORECAST IS NOT LOOKING GOOD FOR MAY 19TH.
A CALL WILL BE MADE ON IT THIS EVENING (May 17th) AND WILL BE POSTED BY 7:00 PM.
Weather is a difficult part of the scenario and a tough call.
I don't want people who travel any distance to the meet make the effort to get here, only to find out it has been scrubbed due to weather.
Also, there is some effort required to get the field ready on the Friday night before the meet so I am reluctant to do that if the Sat. weather is poor.

| Sorry, I see no option but to cancel the June 23rd meet due to the weather forecast.
The site I use that has a good accuracy record has the following chances of precipitation;
Friday Night 70%
Saturday 90%
Sunday 70%
