SCN General Meetings

[Doug Tooley]

Brandy-

Great idea about the history!  We could even get photos, etc and make 
for a great web page - perhaps even with meeting minutes! It is truly 
amazing what an all volunteer effort can get done when there is a common 
vision like that of the founders.

It sounds like there is a lot of interest in doing something before the 
meetings.  I think Jim's idea is great too - any reason why we shouldn't 
do both?  I'd be willing to help out, assuming I can get a little plug 
for marketplace in at the same time!
