Messages from committees-

Secretary: If DCMs (really GSRs) want GSO Agenda items/background sent tothem, let Charlie Staple know. Corrections chair: would like names of local corrections chairs.

Treasurer: Have groups put District, Area, and group number on their checks. These three items will help accounting at all levels (Area and GSO).
