End Notes
The March semi-annual meetings are scheduled to be in Toronto, Ontario Canada, Sunday, March 20th through Tuesday, March 22nd . We will be staying at The Hazelton Hotel on 118 Yorkville Avenue. Current plans are to have the Grant Program Committee and Compensation Committee meetings on Sunday. There will be a reception and dinner Sunday evening where we will be honoring Hugh Brown as he retires from the Board. Monday, we hope to schedule a site visit to a grantee. The other committee meetings will be Monday afternoon. Tuesday morning will be the Board meeting. The reservation forms for attendance at all events/meetings is attached.
