October information for the Faculty & Friends Club of FSU
The Welcoming Reception was a great success with 75-80 members present. We thank all who participated, brought refreshments and generally helped out. Fred and I were on a cruise in Europe from Copenhagen to Lisbon so for once had to miss. We look forward to seeing you at the always festive Halloween Party and at various interest group meetings. To the members remaining to submit your annual dues, please fill out the form on the bottom of this e-mail and mail to Calvin Zongker. If in doubt, send me an e-mail.
