Greetings
An incredibly busy school year this time around. Got way behind on various
R.A.W. works.
BUT June & July renewal notices will be going out today.
Renewals and new memberships received in the past few weeks will go out
tomorrow.
Anyone who has renewed or joined R.A.W. and who did not get a R.A.W.
bumpersticker since our stock was depleted, will be getting the (owed)
number of bumperstickers in the mail. Going out tomorrow.
June playlists for R.A.W. REGGAE will be going out tomorrow.
For the period of June 17th - July 9th, submissions for the "Wha Gwaan in
R.A.W.?" newsletter should be sent directly to Eric Harris (#1418) at
hods@triad.rr.com
Please make your Subject Header relevant to your message.
Include your R.A.W. number.
Text only please!
We've been getting some very long submissions lately, and there have been
a few requests to ask members to SHORTEN their submission to 300 words or
less.
I think that's about it for now....gotta get back to work...still lots to
do before tomorrow's flight out.
One love
Tom #33
