[Ohio-Talk] EXT: Walk with NABS this summer.

[Andra Stover]

Good morning/afternoon,
I think I set up a page on rally up.com. I did not get a confirmation
email. And tried to invite people and I had to know everybody’s emails. So,
I hope I am doing this right. And I didn’t want to say I was the
administrator because I am not. Anyone else from the affiliate doing this?
Thanks and have a great day.
