Sunday tour after ABS Annual Meeting

Post by bambooweb »

I received this from Susanne Lucas
*please forward to anyone who would want to know*

Dear all - here is what I have planned for the tour after the ABS
meeting. I have sent this to Betty Shor but the newsletter will
probably not be in anyone's mailbox until mid-Oct. Can we please post
this on the website ?
Please advise.

thanks,
Susanne Lucas
