• New Event - China Movie Night - April 16
   

The China Committee is planning a movie night at Tallgrass Country Club on Wednesday, April 16.  Details will be forthcoming, but put it on your calendar NOW!

• Welcome - New Members
   

Welcome to Vela Hermann and Chris Goetsch who have recently joined our organization. 
Vela wants to participate in France Committee activities especially.  Please make her feel welcome (and get her busy!).  She can be reached at vhermann1@cox.net.

Welcome to Mark Orvis also.  He is one of the WSU students who studied at Orleans University last year.  He can be reached at mtorvis@wichita.edu.     

 

• Missing Person!
   

Does anyone have contact information on Jennifer Renee Tyson?  She has been on our contact list for some time, but I have recently been getting error messages from e-mails.  I need an update, if anyone knows.

 

• Message from the President
   

Just a word of encouragement to the members and anyone who's expressed interest in international activities.  Please look at ways you can promote this organization.  We need new members, we need financial support, we need workers.  If you have ideas - we need them.  Express yourself!  Write a check!  Make a phone call!  If you cannot make a financial commitment - make a commitment of energy and involvement.

Thanks to everyone...And don't forget to pay your dues (if you haven't).  If you have - THANK YOU!
