About us
Hey folks! We have some exciting changes coming to this group.
First off, thanks to Angela and all previous organizers of events. This YYC Great Plates group benefited greatly from your contributions!
Secondly, Jes is taking over this group, and some changes will be put in place as a result. With an annual fee of over $400 to keep this group running, I am looking to the attendees of events to help pay for these fees. You will see some random events to fundraise for the fees. Please consider contributing so we can keep this group operational.
Hopefully this is a reasonable request for all of us. 100% of collected money will be going towards paying the meetup subscription fee. If there is any overage collected, we will have member events for those who have attended events in the recent year, and extra funds will help pay towards treats for us, like appies for example.
The group direction will be changing as well. As many of you know, I am not only a foodie, but I am very much into herbalism, wellness, and just having fun! You will start seeing events in this group that are not just dining events. I hope you enjoy these event options!
