New Business
• East Alliance needs a one page flier to describe Project Angel Pride. George Pond will be asked to provide graphics to the list of projects to indicate whether or not they have been accomplished.

We will be talking to the Spotlight to see if they can designate someone to write a community column for publication in the Spotlight and to send a Spotlight to the Association when it is published. As usual, one of our problems is continuity from year to year.
