Re: Sac Valley Chapter

[Joel <Zeitguy@xxxxxxxx>]

Dennis,

As a Sacramento Valley Chapter member, I volunteered to do the
Newsletter, and in fact did do one issue (April 1997). However, no
information was given to me for any following issues, and I didn't
figure out I had been dropped like a hot potato until I received the
photocopied "newsletter" in the mail. My point is, there are volunteers,
just not much support for them. However, if the information can be
gathered, I would be more than happy to design the next issue.

Regards, Joel
