Two quick questions!

Here, the expression as ever could also be expressed as 'Like usual 2, the place to be is...'.
1 remember: 'Remember' is the right answer here. To 'remember' something is to 'recall' or 'recollect' a past event: it is the opposite of 'to forget' something. Example: 'I remember breaking my arm when I was three years old'. A 'reminder' is something which 'reminds' us about something, or brings it back in to our minds. Brian is sending a 'reminder' to 'remind' people about the current events club!
1 remind: It is grammatically incorrect to say 'I remind something'. We 'remind people of or about things' when we worry that they might forget them! Example: 'Could you remind me which day you're arriving on? I've forgotten'.
2 Like usual: The expression 'as ever' means 'like usual' or 'as normal'. Here's another example: 'Horatio was as rude as ever when I spoke to him last week. He's never polite to me'. This expresses that things are staying the same.
2 For a change: This is not the right answer. 'For a change' means 'for the first time', or 'to do something differently for once'. Example: 'Horatio was nice to me this morning, for a change. This is the first time he's been polite!'. This is the opposite of 'as ever'.
