* During the last Board meeting a decision was made to prepare a Strategic Plan for the CWPAA. The board agreed that a plan for the future of the CWPAA was needed and would be a valuable tool. The CWPAA is looking for two operators who would like to be a part of this Strategic Plan meeting. Operators, this is a chance for you to get more involved with the association. We want your input. The meeting will be held in July (first 2 weeks) at the Vernon WPCF and will start at 9:00 am and go to at least 5:00 pm.
If you are interested, please contact Jan at (860) 793-0221 ext. 227, or by fax at (860) 793-6687, before June 14, 1999. The two operators will be selected at the June CWPAA board meeting.
