Last year about ten of us met at the Holiday Inn Northwest, where we have had several state conventions over the past years. Everyone got together and ordered the meal they wanted for the banquet and enjoyed the fellowship of dining together. The question is, would you like to see us do this again? If so, would you prefer to do the same format as we did last year and the same place? <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I am sure you will have other questions too. The bottom line is this, please, let me know either by phone at 515 334-7231 or here on the listserv what you would like to see us do. We need your suggestions so that we can do what the group would like to do. I promised the chapter that I would bring the results back to the chapter meeting in May so that we may set things in motion. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Remember, this year many of us should be able to get together and enjoy the evening.
