BBB's Annual Meeting

Dear BBB Members,

 

The annual membership meeting of the Building a Better Boyertown will be held on Tuesday, March 23, 2010 at 7:00 P.M. in the Community Room of the Boyertown Borough Hall, 100 South Washington Street, Boyertown, PA.  The purpose of this meeting is to have the BBB members elect additional directors to the board of directors and for members to receive a report of progress from the president of the board, John W. Lea, the Main Street Manager, Heather L. Oxenford, and BBB's Committee Chairs.

 

We cordially invite you to attend the annual meeting.   We will keep the meeting as succinct as possible but we would like to allow you the time to express any opinions or concerns you may have.  A great deal is happening as BBB continues to advance its mission.  We want to share the good news with you.

 

The Board of Directors of BBB looks forward to seeing you and at the annual meeting on March 23rd.  If you are unable to attend we will see you on the Main Street.

 

Regards from,

 John W Lea

 

John W. Lea, President
