Unfortunately, we have not been too active with this subcommittee +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I am glad to see you have this committee and hope you have people working on it that are not on a lot of other committees. There are a lot of Pc members who would like to work for the club but never seem to get a chance Sally Oh yes, Dania has been working on this for a couple of years that I can attest to, I am part of the Welcoming Committee. She sends us a list of the new applicants and we reach out with a welcome and info, and give them our names and emails so they can stay in touch. I always thought this was a good idea. Still do. Good job to Zoa and Dania.
