Update and Volunteer Opportunity I just wanted to take a minute out to thank everyone again for making this place what it is.
There are many exciting announcements and projects that will be announced shortly.
Thanks for being patient with the rest of the website and the "generic" looking forum that we have going now. :thumpup: We've been working on many things behind the scenes lately, so stay tuned...I promise it will be worth it!
A call for volunteers: if anyone is interested in helping with a few projects that the SPS has in the works, please send me a PM or email expressing interest. You will be volunteering for projects that are vital to the Society, but do not require a lot of your personal time.
I'll keep everyone posted...
