<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" ><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;"><DIV><BR>Countdown--there are only a few days left to send your donation into Sherry Ruth to help pay for the I PAD for our raffle! Remember that the funds we raise will help to replenish the treasury from which many of us are receiving financial assistance from for convention. This fundraiser is a vital part of keeping us going for future assistance requests. </DIV>
<DIV>Chapters and Divisions--please get those $50 checks in the mail before convention!</DIV>
<DIV>BUT, if you neglect to mail the check, don't think you are off the hook---EACH CHAPTER should be able to donate a minumum of $50 toward the I-PAD. IF you don't mail that check before convention--please mail it afterwards. As the saying is somewhat phrased--we will be taking names and hunting you down. There is no hiding where money is concerned. We should all feel obligated to assist in raising funds, heaven knows--we all benefit from those funds.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>See ya soon in sunny, hot Orlando.</DIV>
<DIV>Keep those checks coming in!<BR></DIV>
