If you would like to serve on the membership committee please speak with Trish. THE SUNSHINE COMMITTEE The Sunshine Committee is currently managed by Vanda and Ray. The Sunshine Committee reaches out to members who have not been seen at several meetings for whatever reason. We have a few members who are recovering from various medical concerns. We also have some members who are 'away' for some periods of time, including business and vacation trips. Maintaining communication with our members is very important. When the sunshine committee becomes aware of an absence or illness they will reach out to the affected member(s). To this end your committee (Vanda or Ray) asks that you inform them if you will be away for several weeks. As well if you have a serious illness, or become aware of a member who has fallen ill, please let Vanda or Ray know so that they can follow up. Additionally if you are curious as to the whereabouts or the condition of a member please speak with Vanda or Ray. How can you contact Vanda or Ray? Their phone numbers and email addresses are available in the Member Directory which is accessible through the sign-on section of our web site.
