Ballot mailing & etc.

 I was hoping one mailing would do it for the new ByLaws but it seems we are still a couple hundred short so we will have to make a second mailing, which should take care of it but it still is an expense we hoped to avoid. Expect the second mailing in your mailbox in the next week or two if you have not yet voted. Remember if you don't like the ByLaws you can vote no just so we can have the ballot back. All votes are important in the final count.
 On a second and happier note, a first peek at the proposed budget for 2014/2015 looks real promising. I think you will be pleased again. Too early to post details.
 Last year as you may recall was a knock down drag out fight on the board regarding a portion of the budget. It ended up with a split vote on passage. This year should be different.
 The budget battle on the board was a good thing, proving you do not have a board that will simply rubber stamp a budget. I don't expect it again this year... but who knows???
