[CoWy ASA] Mailing list maintenance and ASA CO/WY Fall Meeting & Annoucements

[Matt Pocernich]

Hi,

I have just been cleaning up the email list for the chapter.  Some of  
you were unsubscribed ( which apparently generates a message) and then  
re-subscribed ( which doesn't).  My apologies.  If you are reading  
this, you are on the chapter mailing list.

I have also just retrieved email addresses from the ASA list.  Some of  
you who recently joined the chapter through the national organization  
may have been omitted from recent announcements.  Again my apologies.

I have attached the most recent announcement sent by Chris.

Thanks,

Matt
