Region K History Part 2 |
|||
| In 1986 they repeated the Wing Gathering again, the rally registration went up to $25 , but the rally shirts were only $8, things were much cheaper in those days. Membership in Canada was 1597 and total GWRRA 33277 (and growing!). | |||
| Five more chapters were added. “H” Mississauga, AR Gerry Young. “I” Trenton, AR Cheryl Dillon. “J” Markham, AR Mike Walsh. “L” Alliston, AR Rodger Guthrie. “K” Newmarket, AR Mike Skyba. George Tozer became AR of chapter “A”. Phil Skinner became Ontario Provincial Director. |
|||
| In 1987 the Canadian Director was Bloyce Coles, AND WE THEN BECAME REGION “B” (!) with George Tozer in the position of Region Director and Ontario Provincial Director was now Lawrence Farrar. The next chapter “M” was ready to get their Charter (I was one of the original charter members). The first Wing Whirl was held in Ottawa in September 1987 and organized by Rodger Leblanc. | |||
| In 1988, a Canadian Wing Fling was held in Stratford Ontario and Wing Whirl was repeated in Ottawa with Bob Mallais as the organizer for the event. There were 13 chapters in Ontario now and we were still Region “B” with George Tozer at the helm, and Irving Allen as the AR of the newest and latest chapter…”M” Hamilton-Burlington. | |||
| In1989 we unfortunately lost Chapters D and E. The Ontario Director was now Gerry Abry. Chapter “B” again organized another Wing Whirl and this time the event was held in Gatineau with the help of Dwight Buckland as the organizer. | |||
1990 |
|||
| Then the world changed, a new Region K was formed and we started all over again. This will be the next story in the making... |
