ITEMS
OF INTEREST:
Newsletter
Change: The newsletter will
transition to the MRC website in May. All people currently receiving the
newsletter via e-mail will be able to go to the web to see the current
newsletter along with past newsletters. Those of you without email addresses
will continue to get a hard copy. Those of you who would prefer to use the
website instead of a hard copy can contact the newsletter editor via phone or
email (kallen2@twcny.rr.com)
and I will update the mailing list. The e-mail list was becoming hard to
maintain as people change their emails and I do not get the updates. By using
the website I will be able to update the site in a more timely matter and when
issues come up between meetings I can add them to the website as Newsletter
Updates. Also, I am hoping to begin adding some pictures to the site.
