ORBS Bylaw Changes

on the ORBS web site by Sept. 28th. Members can submit comments within two weeks
by using the link on the site. If no comments are received, bylaws will be
accepted as written.
November ORBS meeting
Due to a scheduling conflict with our November guest artist and the proximity of
the Thanksgiving weekend to our proposed meeting date, we have decided to cancel
our November meeting. There is no meeting held in December, so the next meeting
after October’s will be next year on January 20th 2008. This will be our big
post holiday bash with a special guest, door prizes and more.

amazing world class event that we are fortunate to have here. Kathy will share
