Effective July 11th, 2011, the ZAMCAN Board has launched a “Get Intimate with the Community” program. The aim is to get engaged with the community to ensure closeness and community support. The email system has served us well so far, but the Board has realized that getting to talking with our community on a constant basis is priceless. Therefore, members of the ZAMCAN community in Ontario will expect calls from the members of the ZAMCAN Board beginning July 11th, 2011. If you believe that ZAMCAN does not have your phone number, please contact any of the board members via yahoo group email.
