[board] The Board retreat

[Gary Denison]

Dana:
I will be at the retreat.  Thanks for hosting!

Jennifer Berry and my wife did a Bee presentation to the Women's Outdoor
Art Club back in April of this year.  I will see if I can get a copy of
that presentatio..  The presentation was about 45 minutes long so it could
be tailored to meet the audience needs.  If they still have a copy of the
presentation I will get a copy of it.  There is no need to reinvent the
wheel!
