They have to encourage people to come out, not just tell them about it. Once a newcomer joins the club, support is instant. A lot of clubs find it hard to be friendly and social to a new member. Williams Coffee Pub on Brant Street is where most members head after Saturday runs, taking over about a third of the pub in their brightly coloured jackets and sweaters. The club organizes events throughout Burlington, such as the Robbie Burns Day Race, donating half the proceeds to local charities.
New members are always welcome.
Besides, you want to live longer so you can make your kids miserable and eventually live off their money.
