<p class=MsoNormal>Hi all-<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Many of us are off to national convention later this week –
I ask you to send me names of your delegates, if you haven’t done so
already, and to encourage those attending to look at the pages on our state
League website for information about caucuses, etc. I will also be looking for
some help in staffing our merchandise table, if any delegates are willing to
volunteer – thanks!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>A few reminders of deadlines:<o:p></o:p></p>
