Due to the time restraint during the month of December, I will not try to call another Committee Meeting before the Seminars. I have enclosed a copy of the agenda and location information for your review. If you are planning to attend one or all of the locations, or if you are not planning to attend, please call me at 618-779-4092 or Danny Coker at 217-827-1780 no later than December 30, 2004.
