[SCG] Re: SCG - ASCE at Buffalo Convention - Proposal PLEASE READ

[Harry Jensen, CORSA Executive Secretary]

Hiya--

This looks fine to Claypool, is fine to me and I think Sarah approves.

We will need to work out some details with the host clubs and SCG, but I'm 
sure Bill, Larry, Sarah, and Chuck can work them out to everyone's 
satisfaction.

Thank you.
