Sunshine

Please join "Sunshine".  It is $30 for the year (and you may split this in half). Ellen Ormond will be managing Sunshine for us this year, so checks may be given to her.  This money is used to spread some sunshine when faculty or staff experience illness or loss.  It is also used for faculty celebrations.  We will provide you a copy of the updated by-laws this week.  Also, we will be drawing for Sunshine Reserved Parking Spaces each month for those that join.  Thank you for supporting our Paine Family!
