President’s Message

by John Janes

Microtivities Web Site:

www.microtivities.com

 

Another year is over for us. Hope you all enjoyed the programs that we have presented and the newsletters that we were able to get to you. All of us have been pretty busy but most of all Rich. We appreciate when he can get us newsletter input and understand heavy workloads when he can’t. Thanks for your effort, Rich. I would like to wish you all a very Happy Holidays.

 

The next newsletter will be in January. We also have an interesting program planned for you in January. First Jim Schlaeppi is going to cover the tax changes for the year. Have you always wondered what you could do with Microsoft Word? Well, attend the January meeting and get some times on how to better use Microsoft Word. We are actively working on programs for the remainder of 2005.

 

Before I forget, the existing board was unanimously re-elected for 2005.

 

Have a safe and Happy Holidays.
