PRESIDENT’S REPORT:
Thanks to the members of NOAA for allowing me to serve as your
president. And thanks to all for your well wishes for a speedy recovery
after my recent shoulder surgery. I hope everyone has had a great
summer and look forward to seeing you soon.

BOARD MEETING
The first order of business is a meeting of all current and past board

plain FUN! The meeting will be held Thursday, August 21, 2008 at 7:00 p.
m. at 7620 Norton Avenue in Harahan, LA (Lake side of Jefferson
Highway off Colonial Club Drive). I hope to see everyone there.
