NUSA REMINDER
In our newsletter of February 17, we explained how Neighborhood Councils could use their funds to send persons to the annual Neighborhoods USA Conference in Kansas City. So far, a record-breaking 20 folks have said they plan to attend. We're here to help with all the arrangments, but time is running out.
1. We need a tentative head count by the end of this week. 2. Each Neighborhood Council will need to finalize its count by Friday, March 17. 3. The following Monday we will lock-in the airline and hotel arrangements based on the finalized numbers we've received. Neighborhood Council accounts will be charged for those amounts. Should the names of the participants change, the changes must be implemented by April 21.
