Princeton-Johns Hopkins Lacrosse game gathering on March 6th

We will be gathering at the Fireside Restaurant and Tavern (1785 E. Cactus Avenue) located on the corner of St. Rose and Spencer in Henderson for the Princeton-Johns Hopkins Lacrosse game on ESPNU at 10:30 a.m. March 6th. We have a room reserved with TVs and the game will also be on some flat screens at the bar. We will have some light appetizers and it will be a cash bar. Please RSVP as soon as you can. But, if you have to decide last minute, that will be fine as well! Thank you to those of you who have already confirmed that you will be there!

Our next Southern Nevada event will be an admitted students social at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Bucholz '65 in Red Rock Country Club between 2:00-4:00 pm on April 10th. Please mark your calendars. For those up North, it appears that April 10th may also be a good day to also watch the Princeton/Syracuse game on ESPNU in the afternoon. I will forward more information on this soon. Also, I have received a commitment from Princeton that they will send us a speaker again this year and I have tentatively scheduled this event for either July or August in Reno.

One piece of GREAT NEWS: We have applied for and won a $300.00 grant from the Committee on Regional Associations (CORA) to "take our association to the next level." These funds will be used to reach out to members in our region who do not have (or check) email. We will be purchasing stationery and postage and sending regular "snail mail" reports to all.

Thanks to the approximately 20 of you who have already mailed in your 2010 annual dues. We will be mailing out receipts for your records. If you have not yet done so, please mail in your dues of $25.00 per person to: Nick Donath, PAAN, 10956 Royal Highlands Street, Las Vegas, NV, 89141. (Please remember that payment of dues in no way affects your standing as a member of PAAN.)

Thanks and see you on March 6th!
