RPCV-NENY Meeting Notes:  Tuesday March 4, 2008

Notes from Augusta:

What a lovely evening in Kathy's delightful house. In those surroundings, we felt cosseted and comfortable. Certainly, in that conducive environment, the go-around and telling about ourselves was quite personal and informative.

As always, the food and drink were delicious, and thanks also go out to our guest, Rebecca Green, an RPCV who has joined us after law school in San Francisco, and someone we hope to see as a permanent member of the Northeast New York regional group.

We also welcomed back Terry Amrhein from his work with FEMA in Baton Rouge, and Joan and Harry Thornhill, after their Peace Corps-like trip to their school in Ghana. You three ambassadors are doing great things for national and international relations.

The issue of dues for this year was brought up, and those people who are not members of the National Peace Corps Association are asked to send $15 to our Treasurer, Jeanette Gottlieb. All others send their dues to the National office, and as as a member organization, we receive $15 back for each of those RPCVs. It was also reinforced that those of us who are not members of NPCA think more seriously of the benefits of becoming members.

Thanks go to Diane Peapus who has worked very hard to bring back our web site, to find out payment fees and schedules, and to keep us on track.

Best, Augusta
