Once again, I apologize for the short Newsletter. Last month, my computer
crashed. I bought a new computer and that one turned out to be a Lemon.
So, hopefully, the third time is the charm. I now have a New New computer
and we are just getting to know one another:-).
Looking forward to seeing you all on May
13th.
Adrienne and Deon
Your Co-Presidents
