[Cabs] CABS Call Minutes

[Amy Sabo]

hello arielle,

thanks for posting the minutes from the cabs call from last night to the list. this is awesome communication and, i believe it's what cabs has always needed and, you finally gave it a wonderful perspective on it.

these all sounds like awesome goals for cabs to work on for the upcoming year and, i know that ccb and the denver chapter will also serve as a valuable vehicle as well too!

thanks again, and i will talk to you soon!


hugs,
amy sabo
