A warm welcome to our New Members during the last fortnight. We had record applications this time around due to increased traffic from Hurricane Bonnie. An amazing 32 applications were filed during the last two weeks, pushing our Membership number to 342. I was overwhelmed with all the New Member Processing which is why this message is about a day late. Of particular interest this time around are the following non-continental US members joining our group: Bruce Rider San Juan Puerto Rico Erling Gotschalksen Oslo Norway Hector Cintron San Juan Puerto Rico We will appreciate their international reports.
