Hey NAMI Lubbock members,
I just wanted to quickly bring you up to date on some recents events.
I think you will like this. We have a new liason from Lubbock
Regional MHMR to replace Janet Harvey. Janet moved away you know, so
I want to introduce Marissa Blanco to everyone. Marissa is with the
Rehab section of LRMHMR and actually asked to be our MHMR
representative. She will attend the monthly meetings and board
meetings etc, if she can stand to be around us, so be nice.

Now for some REALLY BIG NEWS!! I met Marissa today at lunch where Rex
Castle gave me an evelope containing "just a few checks" he had
rounded up for us. Thanks to Rex, NAMI Lubbock is now $8150 richer!!!
Can you believe this?? Folks, we have some serious planning to do.
We discussed some possibilities to use this seed money to grow some
even larger funds. Nothing is planned any further than the "what if"
stage so each of you needs to be thinking about how to best use these
funds to develop NAMI Lubbock.

Our next program meeting is January 23rd. Our program will be Donna
Erwin from Bristol Myers Squibb who always brings us interesting
programs. As always, support will be at 6:30 pm with the program
starting at 7:15 pm.

OK, stay warm, see you Tuesday at support.
David
