[Nyabs] fundraiser

[Darian Smith]

Hi Nyabs-sters!

 just a friendly note; if you plan  on selling something  and you want
it  in the nabs  bulletin, please send that to Sean Whalen at
nabs.president @gmail.com within  the next day or so.
 you don't need to do it, but maybe it will help in getting the word out!
