A member of the committee has been most gracious agreeing to fund the cost of a domain name and 1 years cost.  A large THANK YOU was extended! Charlie Wainwright will investigate the costs for our domain name.

And will review the Yahoo Group mailing addresses and make sure it is up to date.

City wide groups need to be identified as potential members:  include civic, social, business, educational, veterans, religious and municipal organizations. It is a goal for BAP to pursue this year.
