Donna and anyone wondering about the time for the meeting ---- it is 1:30
and as we are in Florida, that is eastern (meaning central is 12:30,
mountain is 11:30 and Pacific is 10:30). Yeah, I shouldn't have used the
term standard, because most of us are dealing with daylight savings. Sorry.

Robert,
Is it really 1:30 p.m. Standard or did you mean daylight savings?

Yes, 1:30 PM Eastern standard, on Wednesday the 3rd. (MM, your question
scared me --- had to look at what I sent and --- hurray, the agenda part
gives the date and time.)

Robert,
thanks. I've always wanted to hear the meeting but don't usually get to
conventions.

So is the time July 3 at 1:30?

Greetings



Again this year, we will be offering a live streaming of our annual business
meeting via the telephone. This will be our third year of accommodating
those who cannot physically be with us at convention. We are using an iPhone
dialed into the Division's free conference number; with an external speaker
hooked to the phone by Bluetooth.



Here is the phone number that you would use to dial into the conference
service: 1-218-339-4300 And here is the access code: 568839Pound



(Let us pray that the hotel is not constructed in such a manner that we
cannot get a signal from our meeting room!)



Below is the agenda; note the times for when we plan to get at throughout
the meeting:
