April 23rd Meeting Notice


“You do not know Sherlock Holmes yet…perhaps you would not care for him…”

-- Young Stamford to Dr. John Watson in the Criterion Bar       

But we know how much you care for Holmes & Watson, so we cordially invite you to join with other Sherlockians as we celebrate the first meeting of these two and the 76th anniversary of the Mendicants.
