APOLOGIES FOR CROSS POSTING
To members and potential members of the Architecture Section:
We will meet on Saturday, April 17 at 8:30 a.m. The meeting room has not
been announced yet, so look for that in your registration packet. If I find
out any sooner than that, I will be sure to announce it via the listserv.
A group of us will meet at 7:00 a.m. for breakfast so that we can visit and
get to know each other. All are welcome! Again, I have not yet determined a
meeting location. I will investigate this next week and let you know. I
expect the hotel restaurant will be best, especially if a buffet style
breakfast is available (that way late-comers could join us easily!). Please
do let me know if you are planning to attend (if you haven't already done
so). This will be a great opportunity for those of us who know each other
to catch up, and for newer members to be welcomed into our fold.
A tentative agenda is below. Please submit other items of interest as soon
as possible so that I can adjust the agenda.
1) Welcome remarks from Moderator / Introduction of current officers
2) (S)election of new officers. Incoming moderator: Polly McCord. Nominee
for vice-moderator/moderator-elect: Karen DeWitt. Nominee for Update Column
editor: Heather Ball. If there are other nominations, please send those to
me or be prepared to make them from the floor. Sue Koskinen has graciously
agreed to continue as webmaster.
