    1. [BOARD] Agenda Items
    2. Denise Wells via
    3. Thank you everyone for allowing me to take the break I needed. Now, let's address issues that the membership is concerned about. Please contact one of your regional reps and provide them with items that you would like to see addressed so we can get them on the agenda. Please include anything that had been previously discussed so we can get them onto the agenda. Go to the national page and find those members who are your regional SC rep, and CC reps. Advise them in as succinct an email as possible as to what your concern is. Those regional reps will bring those items forward and we will get them on the agenda once we evaluate which is the most important. Thanks, and let's go! (Again, I am most appreciative of those who supported me during this past time period. I am not back to perfect, but am much better. I love this project and am not going away, so let's rock. Please also remember that I am working during the day and have even been working on the weekends, but fortunately not full days. Consequently, I may not be able to respond to direct emails until after I get home unless I am able to respond from my phone. Thanks!)
