Our
Chapter will celebrate its Twenty-Ninth Anniversary this
year. Begun as a four-state chapter, we now have members thoughout North
Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, Ohio, Kentucky
and most parts of Georgia other than Atlanta. Atlanta members have their
own
chapter.
We hope that this Web site will
allow us to communicate more efficiently with our far-flung membership.
Please send announcements of derring-do, recent publication titles, and
comments to Chair Warner Montgomery at warnerm@sc.rr.com.
