The tsunami victims need help.
Tim, I believe both the G.O.A. and G.C.O. have different trustees today. I do know that the G.O.A. Chairman is open to new suggestions and I would not be surprised if the current G.C.O. administrators have different views today. Mervyn2.0 Ps. They announced at the G.O.A. 31st dance that they had collected $6,000 for the tsunami relief. Not a bad sum especially considering the fact that the Canadian govt is matching dollar for dollar. ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca
