Friends,

We were unable to reschedule our December meeting, so please plan to come on the
second Thursday in January (Jan. 14) at 6:30, at the Aquinas Institute, 1127
Dewey.  The purpose is to improve our structure so that we can grow, thrive, and
be effective into the future.  It's important, and we heartily welcome your
participation.  I am sorry that I will be out of the country, but John Cubit,
who has been working hard on this front (organization, bylaws, structure, etc.)
will be chairing the meeting.

Thanks!

James

Katherine and all,

It's good you didn't go; it was cancelled due to the weather.  I thought I sent
an e-mail to the group, but when I looked this morning, there was no sign of the
send being completed.  I sincerely apologize if anyone tried to make it in that
dangerous weather, and found no meeting.  I did make calls to the people on our
phone list.  Please contact me if you are willing to give us your phone number
and/or address.

I was little surprised your neighborhood association went ahead with their
meeting, but I guess most people could just walk to it.  As for noise not being
discussed, I think we all experience a sense of isolation when it seems nobody
cares but us.  We weigh out the context, and bring it up when we can.  Often, we
find we were not as alone as we thought.

I am leaving on the 17th, and will be gone for a month, so we're going to
reschedule for next week.  It seems that Wed. the 16 or Thursday the 17th are
shaping up as the possible dates.  We need as many concerned folks to be
involved as possible, so everyone, please contact me with your date preference.

Thanks.

James

Concerned friends of the effort for a healthier soundscape (with less noise),

Please participate in our meeting Thursday December 10, (tonight) at Aquinas
Institute, 1127 Dewey Ave.  It will be all about setting ourselves up with a
better organizational structure, so that we can be as strong and effective as
possible.  This is very important.  This is your group, and your chance to help
make it what you think it should be.

Thank you and see you there.

James

Friends,

The November meeting has been canceled, because people need a break after working hard on the recent candidate forums. We are gearing up for an organizational meeting on December 10. If you are concerned, the cause needs your ideas and involvement, so please share your ideas on how to make this group as effective as possible. And please attend!

Call me with your thoughts and questions at 585-467-6273.
