[Oagdu] FW: [Ohio-talk] Columbus Seminar

[Marianne Denning]

Please remember, the way OAGDU is helping our members attend that day is
paying $25.00 to each currently paid member who attends. I will be in
Columbus that day so make sure you find me and I will write a check. If we
don't connect that day I can send a check in the mail. I hope a lot of us
can attend since our proposed service animal legislation will be on the
agenda. No one cares about this legislation as much as we do.
