How about the new E-news format! I know I said there would be no E-news in December but a couple of issues came up that warranted attention. 

1. Pueblo Grande Museum Volunteers Needed
2. Thank you note from the ASU Adopt-a-Family
3. The Calendar of Upcoming Events, several of which have registration closing dates in early January.
