| President's Message |
Register now for Jan. 11 program
 | | Ed FitzGerald |
Instead of my picture, I've decided to use County Executive Ed FitzGerald's on this column because we're so pleased to have him speaking at our program next Wednesday at the City Club. The latest news is that Harlan Spector of The Plain Dealer will join our panel, with Lynda Mayer of the League of Women Voters. Both panelists are experts on the county's ethics ordinance and all that's been done in the past year to change the culture at county headquarters.
The program is a luncheon, so we have to charge $20 because that's our cost to use the City Club's facilities and partake of its excellent buffet lunch. We're not making a profit on this, and we chose the location in part because it's convenient for FitzGerald and members of his staff, as well as members of County Council, who work just a few blocks away.
The lunch will start at noon, with the program to begin at 12:30 and run through to 1:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 11. The address for the City Club is on the calendar at right. Parking is available in the garage/parking lot off Prospect Avenue just west of E. 8th. If you bring your parking ticket into the City Club, they will validate it so you can get a reduced rate.
Please register here (click on the highlighted text and it will take you to our online registration page) or, if you have problems with that, contact SPJ Secretary-Treasurer Tom Moore at 440-454-3282 or tmoore56@msn.com. See y'all there! Carrie Buchanan President, SPJ Cleveland
