September 4WDriveLines delayed. With the strong possibility of several important business items being acted upon at the Fall Quarterly, your BOD elected to delay publishing. Every fiscal 2007 member of SWFWDA will have a Fall newsletter mailed to them IF WE HAVE A CURRENT/VALID MAILING ADDRESS FOR YOU. We have attempted contact with all member clubs to let them know we must receive a current roster with addresses within the next week. Individual and supporting members should contact the membership secretary to ensure we have your address. Whether or not you will be rejoining SWFWDA in fiscal 2008, get your mailing address verified if you want to receive the last issue of fiscal 2007.
