Many thanks to Shirley and Jim Harvey for handling the
production of this newsletter so well for the past eight years but, more

A Note From The Treasurer…
To speed up check in at the luncheon, it would help if each member
would pay by check. It will make
accounting easier and eliminate the need to bring an unknown amount of
change. Please have your check already
written prior to coming to the luncheon.
Of course, cash is always welcome, but please try to have the $16.00 correct
change.
- Carol Greenleaf - Treasurer
