From the EditorThanks for all of your comments on the "new look" of
Palmetto Pipes, I had no idea it would be so well accepted. NowI will work harder trying to improve on it with each issue.
Last month we changed the meeting from Tuesday toThursday in response to you input on the questioner. Much toour surprise we had fewer members in attendance that everbefore. I speak for all the board members when I say "What arewe doing wrong"? It is time to nominate a new slate of officersfor the 1998 year, so please come out and install you choice ofofficers.
The attendance at the Concours D'Elegance wasGREA T everyone who entered received a beautiful"Participation Certificate", not to mention they had a good time.Bob Chick out did himself on the selection of food, I am stillfull!
