The next Skeptics in the Pub will be help at 1:00pm on 28 November at King O’Malley’s Irish Pub. Full details can be found on the Meetup page –

Prior to the SiTP, there will be a committee meeting. One of the main topics for the meeting will be organising the Australian Skeptics National Convention 2022. If you are interested in assisting us with the Convention, please let us know on canberraskeptics@gmail.com so you can attend the Committee meeting. Organising a Convention is a lot of work, but very worth it. The 2022 Convention needs to be something special as it will be the first in-person Convention since 2019.

As always, if you have not done so, please renew your membership fees. It is your membership fees is what helps make Canberra Skeptics’ events possible – https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1uVg-mWyXoIv_tmieSy24FMdra4JedcLTRj9UPPeeYlA/viewform?edit_requested=true.

Stay skeptical,
