President's Message

By Merle Nicholson

This month, I'd like to mention once again the need for all club members to participate in some way. There are opportunities limited only by imagination. Here aresome ideas: Serve on the board, write newsletter articles, call vendors for donations, telephone past members and re-invite them to meetings. Hand out our club flyers. Do personal invitations to club meetings. Encourage other members to do the same. I'm sure there's more. The board of directors and the people writing articles are very small groups that especially need new blood. Ask any board member how to get started on the activity that appeals to you most, and if you're not satisfied with the answer, persist.

I have written two beginners' articles, last month and this, and I'd like US to continue to do more. It would be just wonderful to have some beginners’ articles written by beginners. If you're concerned that you'll miss on something technical, someone can edit it or make suggestions for you. Send articles by e-mail to lamartin@ix.netcom.com or call William or myself. All our telephone numbers and e-mail addresses are elsewhere on the page. Thanks, and I'll see you at the meeting on April 8th. u
