Guest guest Posted June 4, 2002 Report Share Posted June 4, 2002 Hi Philip and everyone, > This message is for any vegy-minded individuals who would like > to become involved with our new vegy group in the South Bay area I think its great that the South Bay veggie group is well underway! Nearly 100 members, too! / > So that information isn't duplicated on both listservers(SFBAVEG and > SBVS), I will make this ONE-TIME ONLY posting for events for SBVS. I appreciate your sensitivity to cross-posting to both lists. I'm just thinking it would be nice to have an ongoing reference to your group's activities within SFBAVeg for our members who do indeed span the length of the Bay Area (and abroad, in a few cases!) Perhaps you would consider some of the following ideas to share info about your group with SFBAVeg'ers: -add a link to your group in the bookmarks section -list one or two of the regularly SouthBayVeggie repeating events on the SFBAVeg calendar, without a reminder, with a link to your -send an announcement of upcoming events on a regular basis (like monthly or quarterly) Cheers, Tammy " Perform a death-defying act....
