President Valarie left last week for Florida.  Her father had emergency heart surgery.  Prayers and thoughts for Valarie and her family!  Her return is not know at this time. Past presidents will step in for meetings.

The board would like to have a local businesses present a 3 minute introduction to their company at each meeting.

Please let Dave Hanson know if you get someone and he'll add to the schedule.

One 3 minute presentation at each meeting would be the goal.
