Greetings to all,

Welcome to Dean’s Message number 1 (at least from me).

First of all a huge ‘thank you’ to David Dahl and Loi Le, for hosting our June picnic in their beautiful back yard, and also to Tom Clark for making many of the arrangements and taking care of the beverages.

As your new dean as of July 1, I’m hoping for a Tacoma AGO season filled with interesting programs with beautiful music and information, all in good cheer and camaraderie. If you have ideas for any of these programs, please share them with the members of the program committee (David Dahl, Cheryl Drewes, and Dana Robinson) by sending an email to programs@tacomaago.org.

No programs are scheduled for July and August, and no Dean’s Messages will appear, you will have to find your fascinating reading elsewhere during that time.

If you have forgotten to renew your membership, this would be a good time to take care of that. While we welcome all at all of our gatherings, the chapter exists as a result of it’s memberships.

Happy summer!

Paul Tegels
