Thank you to Eva Jansen and Rick Soztak for attending the new members brunch yesterday on behalf of SIG/CR and for also being present for SIG/CR @ the SIG rush yesterday evening.

Kathryn, regarding below, I  believe our designated person was not able to attend... b/c of folks leaving town.  I let Dick Hill know of our challenges and our IG is not unique.  

Thanks everyone, 

jane
