[D28] Revised: District 28 Spring Conference in Phoenix March 7 - 9, 2008 Hotel Discount Deadline is January 31st

[Bill Johnson]

 I have been informed that the registration link that I provided didn't
work.  I found that while putting it together a "period" and "in" attached
themselves to the link and scuttled the function.  The link has been
repaired.

A request for the agenda has also been received and the posting of the
agenda on the website is in progress.  An announcement should be
forth-coming to let you know where to find that information.

Thank you for your patience.
