[NCC] Re: Dayton Contest Super Suite- From the Prez

[rmtonsi at comcast.net]

Be aware that Tim, K3LR, has made a donation to NCC along with paying his dues.  This should make us solvent and allow us to pay for our share of the suite.  I have no objections if you want to make a plea to the membership to make donations for a good cause.

I wonder that our not having the old NCC dinners where lots of us got together and chewed the rag, has had a negitive impact in people paying dues and making donations for plagues and other special needs.
