The beginning of a new calendar year means that we are all successfully halfway through yet another year of volunteerism for this great Association of ours.

FP&D has been busy sending out what few second invoices we have left. The vendors opened up their pockets to once again show support for AASFAA and they have also done a terrific job of sending in that money when we invoice them. To date, total collected is $59,482.50 and total owed is $5,097.50. To all of the vendors, we thank you for your timely cooperation and response.

We also sent out a request, on behalf of the Awareness & Outreach Committee, to our many vendors for supplies to support College Goal Sunday 2004. We would like to take the time to thank the following Vendors for showing your support of this wonderful and needed event in our great State:
