Reminder to all
regarding $10 dues for those who have yet to pay. This amount goes towards the “Have a Heart”
scholarship and paying SAIL for use of the meeting area.
Criteria,
standards and guidelines for the scholarship are being prepared for the April
meeting.
For special
events and news and meeting notes is has been proposed to have such things
emailed to everyone vs just being on the blog.
Please be patient with Barbara as she is also a part of the busy SAIL
staff. She will continue to post a meeting reminder and include the speaker on
the blog, and will email this information out as well. Again, patience will be appreciated. If you notice a discrepancy in the notes you receive,
