Short-Term Events:
1) Meeting on Oct. 25--> read the Talk show packet if you are helping out, give Kristina a list of all the Nursing Homes you know after you call them and ask them if they would like any volunteers by Oct. 28. Some of us have other responsibilities like registration and what not. Shante and I are preparing a little piece on Red Ribbon Week so everyone wear red if they can!

- I am hoping that this website will be more for us to connect about our meetings and we will have another, professional website for the other councils and general audience. What do you guys think?

- Email me if you would be interested in making your own comments! I will add you to the list of people who can edit this page. It is really easy to post. I can show you anytime.

Thanks,
Uwe (possible spelling suggestions?)
