PHONE CALLERS:
Please make contact with your callees. Let them know about Beaver Day
and Apple picking. Lori wants RSVP for Nashoba Valley but YMCA
doesn't seem to want them for Beaver Day. Mention Steak Fry and
Chapter Weekend. Let me or Ping know if there is any interest in
driving for chapter weekend. Throw in a sprinkling of the rest
depending on interest. People who are out of touch may not know that
the blood drive is now in Burlington or what PMD or City Year are.
Don't forget to ask about E-mail access.
Thanks, C----
