Subject: New England Division Cabinet Meeting – Saturday, January 5, 2008
I’d like to invite you to the winter ARRL New England Division Cabinet meeting on Saturday, January 5, 2008 – in Springfield MA.
We usually have 35+ people attending from clubs across New England – this will be an opportunity for you to provide direct input to the ARRL on policy issues. The meeting will run from 9:00am until 4:30pm, with coffee/snacks at 8:30am and a break for lunch at noon – and as in the past we’re asking for your contribution of $15 to help cover some of the cost for breaks and for lunch.
There is an ARRL Board meeting scheduled for January 18th and 19th – this meeting will give us a chance to talk about issues you think the Board should be considering. What would you like to see on the agenda for our meeting?
The meeting will be at the Sheraton-Springfield Hotel (800-426-9004) at One Monarch Place, Springfield MA. You can view a map and get driving directions here:

If you park in the hotel garage, we’ll cover the parking charges as part of the meeting cost.
Please let me know by December 30th (earlier is better!) if you will be coming so we can plan for a big enough room and enough food. Vice Director Mike Raisbeck, K1TWF, and I are looking forward to seeing you there!
Very 73!
— Tom
