March 2010 O.M.A.H.A. Board Meeting

O.M.A.H.A. Members
We have elected to push the March 2010 Board of Directors meeting back 1 week from March 15th to March 22nd. This extra week should allow our merger committee enough time to finalize a possible merger plan with the Gladiator Hockey organization. At the March board meeting, the Board of Directors will review the plan and vote on whether to put it to a vote of the membership at the annual meeting on April 19th. If you are interested in hearing about the possible planned merger, please feel free to attend the March board meeting on March 22nd.

Thank you,
Neal Krauss
