I WOULD LOVE TO BECOME INVOLVED BUT I WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK TO SOMEONE BEFORE I COME TO A FUNCTION. I CAN’T FIND ANYONE TO COME WITH ME FOR THE JAN 18TH 10TH AMENDMENT FUNCTION. I WOULD APPRECIATE IT IF SOMEONE COULD SEND AN E-MAIL TO ME WITH A PHONE NUMBER THAT I CAN CALL TO GET MORE INFORMATION.
Anna Mary Walters, you did not say what area you live in. I will be glad to talk to you but I live in Middlesex. You may contact me at 314-6638 which is a local number from Richmond. Monica Sanders
