RE: 2014 AIS Convention

[cheryl deaton <region15kids@hotmail.com>]

Ron,
This conflict is very unfortunate and the fault of no one.  I knew you would
be unable to attend the AIS Board meeting before we left the last convention,
and I knew I would be unable to attend the SLI Convention due to work
commitments - we should try cloning ourselves.  If I can assist you in any way
during the AIS BOD meeting with your reports, recommendations, etc., please
let me know. I will be happy to help.  I hope to be able to visit City Park
during the Fall Board meeting, even if the flowers will not be in bloom.
Thankfully these conflicts do not happen very often.
Cheryl
