Creation of the 2022 New Outlook newsletter took a bit more time that expected this year since we wanted to include tentative dates for our volunteer activities and a full listing of local deaths in 2021.

Print copies went out in the mail today to those members that don’t have email addresses (copies were in black and white to keep our cost down).  We have a little under 150 members without email.

Hopefully you’ll join us at John D Burlie luncheons and events in the future. 

Please remember to track your volunteer hours done on your own since we are asked to report them to help Pioneers attract organizations to provide us benefits, etc. 

If you need to update your email or have other questions, feel free to contact me.
