Dear MRIC Members,

Please forward any additional agenda items that you think we should include.

At this point I have received confirmation of attendance from the following:

Dave Prestel - Howard
Bill Clark/Tom Velvin - Kent
Russ Plante - Washington
Jim Devilbiss and Jim Ridgley - Frederick
Ray Brown - St. Marys
Fred Bader/Bill Hatfield - Montgomery
Frank Winner - Anne Arundel
George Remhof - Cecil
Brett Hammond - Talbot
Al Fitzsimons - MEMA
Chuck Hodell - Queen Annes

If I have missed your reply or you are attending and not on the list, please
email me back by Sunday April 17th so that I can add you to the list for
MEMA.  I am travelling the week of the 17th and will not be home again
before our meeting on the 23rd, so it is important that I get this list to
Al before I leave. 

You will not be able to enter Camp Fretterd without being on the list that
is given to the security detail at the gate.  You will also be required to
show a government issued picture ID like your driver's license and/or your
county ID if you have one.

The address for MEMA is 5401 Rue Saint Lo Drive, Reisterstown, MD 21136.
Phone is 410-517-3600.

If someone besides the RACES Officer is representing your jurisdiction, I
will need to know in advance, or by a note on that date for the purposes of
voting authority.  Obviously, I will also need their name for the gate list.

I realize that the 23rd is a holiday weekend for some, but this was the date
decided on at the last meeting.  I will make every attempt to see that the
meeting runs quickly and hopefully we will not need to stay until 3.  We can
decide if we want to order pizza at the beginning of the meeting.

I still have not had a volunteer from the RO group for the position of
secretary at the meeting.  If that remains the case, I will streamline the
process of updating the contact info, frequency lists and other data.  I may
also ask for substantive motions to be submitted in writing.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions, comments or suggestions.

I hope to see you on the 23rd.
