Editor's Note
This newsletter is shorter than normal since I almost forgot about the early date of the meeting.
Mike Arend did send a message requesting that we publish photos on the web site or in the newsletter of the new bar that Tyler brought to the April Meeting. If anyone has any pictures, can they send them to me so that I can include them in the next newsletter?
