We are gearing up to open a new, multi- levelled store in Vancouver this summer. My husband Michael and I just returned from a lovely trip to Vero Beach, Florida. While there, Jennifer Tory, Ginnie Grand Wright and I had a mini-reunion of our own at Jennifer’s stunning house in Lost Tree, Palm Beach. On behalf of myself and Cathy Robinson Clark , we wish our esteemed Havergal community much happiness, health and love in 2019!

They hope to tour the coasts of many places they did not visit on their 2000-2006 circumnavigation and to anchor in places where they have fond memories in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.
