CHAPTER 18:   
 
Hello my fellow Altrusans!
 
It's the beginning of Spring Break for some of us - myself included. I am packing up today to help chaperone 80 middle schoolers from our church youth group go on a mission trip to Galveston. Yes - pray for me. :) But it will be a fun time - exhausting and rewarding too.  I will miss seeing you on Tuesday and will do my very best to Zoom in. Brenda Hill has graciously agreed to step in and lead this very important meeting for us.
 
Our March business meeting seems to always falls on Spring Break and is also always full of lots of important business to take care of. So, if at all possible, please make every effort to be there, whether in person or virtual so that we have a quorum for voting. 
We will be voting on our slate of officers for next year, reviewing club policy changes (see Documents below), and of course reviewing a handful of great projects for the coming months. 
 
We have 2 more book clubs this year! The next one is our Biography - Scared Fearless on April 4th followed by The Wife Who Risked Everything in May. More details below. Please pick up a copy of these books so you can join in our discussion at the upcoming socials.
