To all Colorado Section members:

Important announcements and section meeting information are frequently sent out electronically to all members via the listserve. Although much of this information is published in the newsletter, the listserve is a much quicker dissemination vehicle and allows the section to be more responsive to its members in communicating information.

If you would like to be part of our listserve or have been experiencing problems with receiving listserve announcements, please send a current email address to Linda Wilkes at linda.wilkes@colostate-pueblo.edu.

Your email address will be used exclusively for the purpose of communications related to Colorado section activities and will not be used for commercial purposes or shared with other organizations.
