Greetings friends, SHOA officials and countrymen and countrywomen. Lend me your eyes!

As you know SHOA is a complex organization, but we as officials are quick to adapt. Here's one time we need to do so.

The November General Membership Meeting, which was listed as being held on Wednesday, November 16, has been moved to the following night, Thursday, November 17 at the Gardens Ice House in Laurel Maryland. The festivities will being at 7:35 p.m.

There are several reasons for the change, but rather than bore all members I'm available for individual questions. Suffice it to say we recognize that any time we change a meeting it may cause other conflicts. A sincere apology if you are in one of those situations.

As you know, SHOA does NOT have a December General Membership Meeting. But pencil in on your calendars Wednesday, January 18, in Laurel for the first meeting of 2017. Hard to believe that it's nearing year's end.

Thanks to everyone for what they do for SHOA and hope to see you next Thursday in Laurel.

Bob Oliver
Secretary
