Ongoing:

We have not received a refund from the cancelled 2009 ASL Expo. I did not get a response to the last email I sent to James Kittell on June 6, 2010.  The check was written on August 24, 2009 and cashed on August 31, 2009.  It looks like we will have to write it off as bad debt.

Other:

Booths:
We did not participate at the Deaf Nation Expo in Pomona on May 1, 2010.
Deaf Festival 2010 at Woodley Park on September 25th =  It is $100.00 if we are going to exhibit there this year.
