We know how hectic life can get during the holidays and want to make sure to communicate when we will be meeting, but more importantly, when we won't. The Board agreed this week to cancel the Nov 24th, Dec 22nd, and Dec 29th meetings due to expected low attendance during these holiday weeks. We will have regular meetings Nov 17th, Dec 1st, and Dec 8th. We are planning a holiday party at the regular meeting location on Dec 15th. More details to follow soon. Please let me know if you have any questions.
