District Committee Greetings - 
Getting Stuff Done

Hello all,

I hope somebody out there is looking at the District Agenda Powerpoint. This format is saving paper, but as we get used to it, the meetings are also going faster. 

District Committee - please  remember to let me know if you have agenda items OR you can access the upcoming Committee agenda on the drive. 

See you soon!

District ​Chairman
