Hello all,
I will not be at the meeting today due to my work schedule. The workshop went very well, had many in attendance, and all had a good time. Special thanks to Bob and his musician friends. They really played well. Thank you to Irene for bringing us supplies at the last minute. Thank you to Joanie for helping me communicate with Justin and the Grapevine. It was nice to have the Literature table at our event. Thank you to Irene for always being supportive and attending the workshops and always being willing to help out. Thank you to Libby for designing the flyer. It was a big project, Vicky and district 9 were wonderful. I could not have done it without them. I will be in touch with Marty B. tomorrow for reimbursement of the money that I put up for the event. Everything was split with District 9 and I will have the breakdown in May. There is no info at this point on future workshops.
Yours in service,
