From the past President:

Dear Fellow LBA Members,

Following are some pictures of our new members that have been added this year.  I think we have added some very good quality memebers!

Many thanks to those of you who have gone to the trouble of bringing new people into our association.

I ask not what you can do for the good of yourselves, but what you can do for the good of LBA?  If you give back and b ring one new member to our association-per person, we have a dynamic group-double our size.

I have enjoyed being your president! Thank you for the opportunity, but just wish I had worked harder at it for you. God Bless!

Sincerely,

Bill Lane
