Welcoming a new Friend: Cam Dix
Please join me in welcoming our newest Friend, Toronto based Cam!
I had the pleasure of first meeting Cam at a Ring 17 Members' Night many years ago, where he showed great kindness to Kidlet after Kidlet's coerced impromptu performance. You can often find Cam at The Browser's Den of Magic and helping out at functions hosted by The Den.
Thank you Cam, for becoming an official Friend of Canada's Magic!
