Annual Membership Meeting, April 17, 2010
The theme of this year's meeting was "Staying Relevant in a Down Economy." Two and one half hours of very interesting and intense dialog lead to many important issues for the rest of the membership to consider. As seen in the above photos, lots of "skullduggery" kept the attendees busy generating material to be studied and discussed by all of our membership. Do take the time to visit the membership page to review three very significant documents produced for your consideration and appreciation by this year's attendees, and to see more pictures from this year's meeting.
Thank you to our BAodn sponsors
