Keeping it simple

As colgaffneyis secretary, I am ultimately responsible for getting the monthly newsletter out on time. I am under extra pressure this month, because we have our annual business meeting the first weekend of February and a big show on the second weekend. Unfortunately the person who was to do the article on the show has been sick, so I decided to write it myself. With the right inspiration this took only a few minutes. I just recycled last year’s article, updating as needed, and added a couple points from the show’s web site.
