Subject: Re: Maybe this time (fwd)
Hello all,
Just to clarify one point, the members who serve on the Chapter development
committee here in Indiana were not elected, we were appointed to serve on
the committee by state President Ron Brown.  I have not been elected to
office here in Indiana.
I hope that my next message to the list can read in part that "we will be
meeting with interested persons from Porter County to organize a new 
apter".
