Monthly Meetings Will Be Starting A Little Earlier:
Beginning with the June FRW Meeting (June 5, 2012), the regular meeting will begin at 6:15 pm instead of 6:30 pm. This will give us an extra 15 minutes each meeting - all of which is very much needed. Our plan is to have all future meetings, starting with the June one, to start at this new time of 6:15 pm sharp. We will revisit this issue at the next board meeting (July 7, 2012) to tweak if necessary.

Rick Orr
FRW President
