March 2021 Virtual SLV TU Meeting

Thanks to the twenty folks, primarily from the SLV, who joined our fourth virtual SLVTU meeting in March. The slate of candidates listed in the March newsletter (now shown on the first page of this newsletter) was unanimously elected. Welcome to our newest board members, Don Spencer (newsletter editor) and Bradley Powers (fundraising/auction)! The program for this meeting featured members sharing information about favorite/influential books. In case you weren’t able to attend the meeting, here is a list of the books mentioned:

“My Story as Told By Water”, by David James Duncan
“Into the Backing”, edited by Lamar Underwood
“The Earth is Enough”, by Harry Middleton
