JANUARY MEETING

Thank you to all of our members who braved the cold to join us for our meeting Wednesday January 18th!!! 

We would like to extend a warm thanks to CAPSC Trustee Liaison Pat Cochrane and Trustee Lynn Ferguson.  Your comments and candor were greatly appreciated. 

We would also like to thank Chief Superintendent Naomi Johnson for taking time from her busy schedule to attend our meeting.  She provided our members with thought-provoking information and answers to our questions.
