Hi @Michael ,

Just a note of sincere thanks for having negotiated the field opening for us last month and for your leadership in coping with COVID-19.  We are all so very fortunate to have had this social outlet during a time of necessary restrictions on our daily lives.  The field protocols have been easy to comply with and we have enjoyed the luxury of continuing one of our favourite pastimes with little inconvenience.  We are truly grateful to you and the board.

Andy
