Saint Lambert Revisited
For the majority of us, who went to CCHS, St. Lambert is a distant memory. It may have been 40, 50, or even 60 years ago, since we last walked down to the village. Some have gone back for a visit, or to attend the reunions in 1995, or 2005. Now we are contemplating a visit next May. What can we expect? Has the town changed?

| Alumni Poll |
Results of last month's poll of alumni email practices.
As soon as it appears in my inbox - 81% The same day when I get home from work - 14% I leave them for the weekend when I have more free time - 5% Angus--None of the categories in your poll of alumni email practices apply to me, so here's my answer:
1. I don't open the newsletter when it comes through first on my home email because with a dial-up connection and an old computer the newsletters simply don't come through properly. I leave it on the server to be picked up at the office.
2. I read alumni assoc. email as soon as time, connectivity and work permit, most often at the office the day it arrives, or the day after: it depends on how busy things are and whether I have any down time, usually at the end of the office day. Email is largely work for me, whether at home or at the office, and I can't read recreational ones if there are "real" ones waiting to be answered. (Right now I'm travelling, and happen to have the facilities to read the newsletter.)
I do find the newsletter interesting--I've enjoyed the historical stuff, though I sadly admit that I am a member in large part to keep up with the obits.
