We’re pleased to let you know that we will be holding the next Club meeting on Tuesday February 4th at 7 pm at the Niagara College Welland Campus. The Campus is located at 100 Niagara College Boulevard and is accessible from Woodlawn Road, First Avenue, and Rice Road. Enter by the Main Entrance, the Campus Entrance (follow the North Road), the West Entrance, or the Chippawayan Blvd Entrance, only westbound from Woodlawn Road. Easy access is from Hwy 406 from the north or south across Woodlawn Road, or from Niagara Street or South Pelham Road, south of Regional Road 20.
The Club Executive has reviewed a large number of potential locations to hold our monthly meetings in 2025, and the offering from Niagara College was exceptional. They have offered us absolutely free use of Lecture Room S135 adjacent to the Cafeteria and the Commons Entrance (please refer to the maps and photos included below). This also includes free parking after 5 pm in Lot C2 and C3, which is safeguarded by Security Personnel and cameras. For reference, these lots are to the Northeast of Lot D, where the Niagara College Car Show was held last year.
The parking lot C3 is just a short walk to the Commons Entrance that leads into the Food Court/Cafeteria, and there is a circular driveway/drop off area on the North Road beside the doors, as shown below:

As in the photo below, the Commons Entrance leads into a large seating area right next to the Food Court, which features Tim Hortons, Subway, Pizza Pizza and others.

There is also an onsite restaurant The Core (in the Student Centre) near the Athletic Entrance that will be available to us throughout the year. The Core is Room Number SA100, and can be entered by the door shown below, which is just a short walk past the Food Court, to the left.

We recommend that you arrive at the Campus and park in Lot C3 at 6 pm or thereafter, as that will allow you plenty of time to get a coffee, or a drink, or a snack in the Food Court, and then sit down and socialize with other Club Members in the generous seating area of the Cafeteria. If you wish to have a meal at The Core (seating and menus shown below), you should preferably arrive between 5:30 and 6 pm.

As in the photo below, the short hallway directly beside the Wellness Lounge (this is just a few steps from the Commons Entrance, across from the computer screen shown below) leads down to Lecture Room S135, with washrooms located at the opposite end of the hall.

Directly inside the first door of Room S135 will be our usual layout of name badges, club information, and tickets. The room itself has tremendous acoustics, and also features a multimedia display screen and audio system. There is a generous amount of seating in an ampitheatre format. The room is reserved for our use, and requires no set up or teardown. Food and drinks are permitted; we just ask that you clean up any items that you bring in.
Note – As the Niagara College facility has numerous food options available, we will not be providing snacks and drinks in the Lecture room, so please arrive early and make use of the Food Court offerings.
The meeting will start at 7 pm, so please make your way from the Food Court before that time.

We’re looking forward to seeing as many Members as possible at this first meeting of 2025. We will be holding the Free Membership Draw for those members who have paid their 2025 membership amount by Dec 31st, 2024.
Thanks
