Comments

Betsy, I'd love to see these

Betsy,

I'd love to see these gigs listed on the CASA calendar along with your ambassador report. I make it down to SoCal frequently and would like to have a ready reference to look up shows!

Sorry for the sloooow reply

I'm happy to have anybody who's web-savvy copy these onto the CASA Calendar -- but I'm a little reluctant to take on another job myself. Any way we can get some other a cappella fan to do that part of it?

Betsy

p.s. love the chapeau, but was always too shy to let you know

I'm not sure what all's involved but I'm game

It sometimes seems thought that the information on the Newsletter is a little dated.  Any way I could get the information before it hits the email inboxes?
