GRR Survey
For those who are saying, "What survey?". I understand about missing emails.  Another  GRR Survey will be sent Sunday.   Your feedback is needed.  Your participation is valued. The purpose of this survey is to determine your  interests and  willingness to participate in current and new club activities.  There are many ways to serve. The information from the survey will be used for planning. Thank you to those who completed the survey.
