Dear Melissa and list,
I think before this idea, and I do think it?s a good idea, needs to be
discussed and then voted on before we can make any further arrangements.
Evelyn is our president, and you are a valued NJABS member, but we are a
democracy. Two people can not make decisions for the entire group. Our
next teleconference will be on April 19, due to the Easter holiday; let?s
examine this possibility then?
Regards,
Quintina Singleton

Subject: [Njabs-talk] Rock Climbing Fundraiser for NJABS
Hello Everyone,
Evelyn and I were discussing different ways that NJABS can fundraise,
socialize, advertise, and have a great time. One idea that we've come up
with is hosting a rock climbing event on a Saturday in late June. All NJABS
members, family members, and friends will be invited. In addition, we plan
to utilize a public park, meaning that the general public is also welcome to
join us and learn more about NJABS. Moreover, we were thinking that there
could be a cookout and bake sale.
As of right now, locations are still being researched and we currently do
not have a date set. Before we proceed with our plans, we are interested in
your opinions.
- Do you like the idea and think you'd be interested in attending?
- Do you have any locations or preferred dates?
- Do you have any suggestions?
Thank you,
Melissa-Missy & Evelyn Valdez

Here's a reminder about what plans have been in discussion for NJABS. Please tell us what you think!!
Evelyn and I were discussing different ways that NJABS can fundraise, socialize, advertise, and have a great time. One idea that we've come up with is hosting a rock climbing event on a Saturday in late June. All NJABS members, family members, and friends will be invited. In addition, we plan to utilize a public park, meaning that the general public is also welcome to join us and learn more about NJABS. Moreover, we were thinking that there could be a cookout and bake sale to raise money for NJABS.
The location and date is currently not finalized. We are interest in yoru opinions. Don't be afraid to share them:
- Do you like the idea and think you'd be interested in attending?
- Do you have any locations or preferred dates?
- Do you have any suggestions or oppositions?
Thank you,
Melissa-Missy
