Programming 2008-2009

Dear Members,

We tried to incorporate members’ ideas in the programming. We have topics and we have places for the upcoming AAUW meetings. We hope you find the programs interesting and exciting. We also hope you will volunteer to assist with a meeting or two. The general topics are listed below. Please, please, please volunteer to serve on a committee!

Take a minute right now to volunteer by e-mailing Co-Program Vice Presidents Kim Hassel (kim.hassel@mobileinstrument.com) and/or Peggy Dishop (dedishop@charter.net). The program/membership books will go to the printer in a week. We’d like to include the names of all committee members in that book.

Thanks a million!
