SEPTEMBER NEWSLETTER
This newsletter is a recurring feature, making it easier to notify you of all the new, exciting things going on in our group for the month and a central place to keep track of any carry-over challenges and discussions. As always, this is a joint effort by your moderators, Lisa Kay, Gisela, Susan, and CaroB. (Heather is away for a while.)
