This is just a reminder that there is only one month to go for Festivus. We have only 4 signed up, but know that there are many more interested, but procrastinating. Don’t wait, signup now! Google Sheets are standing by. Last year we had about 40 people. Let’s top that number! Here is the FESTIVUS signup: < https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CYLtFeyBlKwX7h2ohfXz421hFQjZTPPAkdVm...

We ALSO need volunteers to sign up to be DOCENT for one hour. The holiday train show is that weekend and InfoAge will be quite busy. Here is the signup for that. DOCENT signup: < https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yyENBp9Oi2Cudkns4X9ssZc2usaGRYHQmbv9...
