Business Meeting:
Because we have no bank account and hold no money, Bobbi Albert, our Treasurer suggested that we do away with that officer position. Whatever money we collect goes to the Minutes at FaSoLa and to 2nd Presbyterian Church in gratitude for hosting us. We agreed to retain the 3 remaining officers for the next year: Frances Carnell, Chair; Dave Farmer, Vice-chair; Mary Baumeister, Secretary.
