Presentation: I began to write poetry twenty years ago as part of my learning to deal with anxiety and the impact of leaving the farm that I had lived on for most of my life. My poetry covers a range of topics far beyond the impact of anxiety and include rural life, family, my view of the world around us, and anything else that touches my fancy when I pick up my pen. Bio: John Core was born and raised on a dairy farm in Lambton County. He is a graduate of the University of Guelph with a BSc(Agr) 1970 and a MSc (1972). John has been an Agricultural College lecturer, a dairy farmer, chair of Dairy Farmers of Ontario, and Chair/CEO of the Canadian Dairy Commission. Now retired, he and his wife Donna live in Guelph and have 2 daughters and three grandchildren. He is a director of Agricorp, a director of the Foundation of Guelph General Hospital, Past President of the Ontario Agricultural Hall of Fame , and a Restore and an Adopt-a-Family volunteer.

Royal City Men’s Club Cancellations Related to COVID-19 - Updated 29 April 2020 In line with guidelines from the government and public health professionals, Royal City Men’s Club is regretfully cancelling all "live" lectures, activities and coffee club get-togethers until further notice. We anticipate this could be from a several weeks to a few months. However, we are pleased to announce that we will be offering a limited number of "virtual" meetings where speakers will present a virtual presentation using Zoom. Also, on every Thursday on which we do not have a presenter, we will have a "virtual coffee morning", again using Zoom. Thus there will be either a lecture or a coffee morning very Thurs at 10 am. In order to simplify Zoom logins, everyone will be sent a single link which will apply to all these meetings. We thank you for your understanding and patience during these uncertain and stressful times. We will continue to communicate via our mailing list and on our website to keep you well informed. There is additional information on the website. In the meantime, your health is of primary importance and we encourage everyone to follow the advice of the government and health professionals.
