Paul, she will give us her impressions of this vast emerging world power.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

Committee to award one scholarship ($1,000 for each of 4 years) in 2013, as
presented by Gail Marshall, committee chairwoman.
- Tickets for the fund-raiser, scheduled
April 14, will be distributed at the March meeting, and then mailed to absent
members. Keep thinking BASKETS and their filler-uppers, and bring things in
March!

following changes: Add- Lois Donovan; 708 West Ave, Lyndonville,NY;

FUTURE ACTION
-
Discuss
continuing or discontinuing our practice of donating a book (cost $25) to the
Lockport Public Library in memory of a deceased member. If that is discontinued,
one idea would be to make a one-time donation to Niagara Hospice to purchase a
brick (cost range $150-$250). Receipts available soon for donations to the
scholarship fund as a memorial.
-
Appointment of a
Publicity Chairman, who would write short articles
and take
pictures to submit to the newspapers.
- The
next Board of Directors meeting is changed to Thursday, March 21 at 7
p.m. – Patty Russell’s home.
