I just want to take this time out to thank all the people that are involved in our big project, the industrious volunteers helping to make Brother-Fest 2003 a reality. We all appreciate your hard work. Planning will be harrowing for the next few weeks but we here at Brotherhood headquarters feel that with patience and determination, our goals will be met. I especially want to thank all the phone operators who have been recording pledges, and of course, all our Honorary Brothers and Brotherettes for your keen sense of wit and observational humor.
