The Executive Director is always glad to hear from members, in this particular case, John Ames who not only paid his dues on time but added another $75 to help the ExDir purchase some "nerve tonic" to help him get over the ordeal of the July conference at Andrews.  While we appreciate it and it could help offset the financial rigors of a Canadian vacation, we'll just add John to the Booster Club where the money will do more good.  We do appreciate it.
