Newsletter News
Our weekly News and Notes serves many purposes. Primarily it is a means of inspiration and a place to share information. To these ends we are continually making changes in hopes that more people are both informed and inspired! Our current format is to share 'tweets' with links to more complete stories. Our hope is that the 'tweets' will whet your appetite and also to guide you to the place where more information can be had. If you'd like to share a 'tweet', please let us know!
FAQ: What about our members and friends not using email? ANSWER: Because most of the information in our newsletter is also in our weekly bulletin, we mail the bulletin (weekly) to those not accessible via email. We also print a monthly paper News and Notes to supplement the weekly mailing.
