Angie Z: passed out flyers. I sent our information to GSO to let them know D. 17 has now a PI committee. GSO, will sent us the PI folder and a 2018 AA literature catalog. We’re asking the D.17, for a little start up money? When we get the catalog, we’ll see what the prices will be. We will bring it back to the next D.17 meeting in June.
