[Wyewood] June Business Meeting Notes

[Linda Hosea]

Greetings, all. I owe an apology to all and specifically to someone!  When posted for comments to the Officers, I did get a couple of corrections to make - and they never happened! So sorry....  

If the careful reader who found them wants to offer to the group, please do so (unless, of course, the efficient Lady Emma has saved me!)  I am in the midst of preparation for ATWW, and not time to go find emails...

Sadly,
Sofia
