TOM TAKES ON NEWSLETTER
Once again I had a need and one of you
answered. Tom, who has done so much for
many organizations, will take on my part of
the newsletter. We'll work together at first to
insure a smooth transition. Then he will be
responsible for writing the front page,
collecting info for the other pages, collating it
and having it printed. If you have suggestions to improve the newsletter, please offer
them to Tom, and please send clippings, e-
mails etc. We need your input.
Mitch will still be collecting your addresses and making mailing labels so that
Micki and Mac can fix and stuff envelops and
get them in the mail to you.
As you can see, this is an undertaking.
Words can't really express our thanks to
these people and all of those who have taken
on a little extra work to keep our organization
going. If you'd like to volunteer, please do.
And don't forget that Quarterly Coordinating
Committee (everybody invited) meets in
September. We must consider such financial
matters as what to do about our grant proposal for Guilford Greene and about dues
with National's hike.
Well, we missed it again! Donna and I
made plans to go to the pool party in Mt.
Airy, but on the day found that we could not.
I understand that not many of you were there
either. Those who were said they had a great
time! Let's decide now *n taVp advanta°p of
Shelby's generous invitation next July.
The taping of "Me, Mama, and Patti La-
Belle" went very well with a responsive
audience of more than 30. Now if National
will just have the sense to value it
