| April 4 - A few Items |
| Kris Baal, one of the original founders
of RFA, asked me to share the following message with all of the members
of the organization: Hey guys. Just wanted to let you know that the past weekend was a lot of fun. I can't tell you guys how impressed I am by the way your organization is growing. With continued dedication and diligence, I am sure that you will make a lasting positive impression among the Rutgers community. Increasing your exposure through various outlets such as the Targum, the Centurion, your public speaker series, and word of mouth has produced a kind of following that I could not have imagined, when I started the club. Keep up the good work, and good shooting! The organization really has come along, and I look
forward to seeing all of you at the movie night tomorrow! |
