|
All,
Below is a revised agenda for next week’s meeting. As you can see, it will be a busy day and we have a tremendous amount of work
to complete in a short period of time. Please give some thought to the items in the agenda so we can move through the topics
efficiently. We plan to work hard, but we will feed you. I’ve included the menu items to tempt you. I look forward to seeing each of
you there.
Best Wishes,
Howard
