***apparently I forgot to send out the March minutes.  I was quite encouraged that people actually noticed because that means that they are indeed reading them (Yipee).  My apologies as secretary for this.  One good thing about them coming out so late is that they will be fresh in everyone's mind at the April meeting which is next Wednesday April the 21st at the Civic Centre at 7:00.***
