Hello Amici Cycling Club members and friends,

On Tuesday, Oct 17/17 at 9:30 am, the Public Works Committee ("PWC") of the Niagara Region at the Niagara Region Headquarters, Campbell West, 1815 Sir Isaac Brock Way, Thorold, ON, will be considering a request for funding of the Port Robinson Ferry for the 2018 calendar year.

Two cycling advocacy groups will me making formal presentations to the PWC:

1. Niagara Cycling Clubs Alliance ("NCCA") (Amici Cycling Club is a member of the NCCA)

2. Niagara Cycling Tourism Centre ("NCTC")

Members, see you email for the PWC Meeting Agenda and the materials submitted by the NCCA and NCTC for consideration by the Committee.

The success of the presentations will be greatly complimented by having as many cycling jerseys in the audience as possible.

Unanimously approved by Regional Council today to continue to provide the funding required to support Bridge-it Ferry for the next 10 years! Excellent presentations to the 28-member council by Niagara Cycling Tourism Centre's Sue Morin & NCCA represented by FreeWheelers and St. Catharines Cycling Club. We had 40 members of the cycling community in the audience, including Gregg Derrick, Carolyn van der Sluis, Carol Farrar, Marcus Klein and myself.
