[SkateDC] Fwd: Oh...Canada!Roll 2009

[sm4sm at aol.com]

This was posted on the EuroRoll list a few days ago, but I can't remember if anyone has circulated this yet locally to the DC/MD/VA clubs, so here it is.

Michael Zosa who has organized the last EuroRoll or two is assisting in this one.  Mischa Greenberg of the Landskaters is the chief organizer I'm told.  Reply to Michael with any questions or to express your interest:  mzosa at mces.org.
