  March 2010 Pen & Palette Highlights:

• It’s not too late — yet — to participate in the upcoming “Visions and Verses” art and poetry exhibit, to be held March 8-April 30 at the American Orchid Society. But you need to move quickly. Deadline for entering is March 5, mere days away. Contact Phyllis Emmetted at 561-734-1070 for details.
   
• Many of you know JoJo Roberson Harder, a writer and designer whose captivating line of intimate apparel is just a small part of what this talented member is all about. Learn more about her in this issue’s “Membership Focus” column by Marlene Klotz.
   
• Are you a mystery and thriller buff? Then check out Mary Unterbrink’s review of Dead Air, a contemporary thriller by Deborah Shlian and Linda Reid that already has earned the Best Books Award from USA Book News. The book offers a fast-moving plot, plausible characters and a feisty protagonist named Sammy Green.
   
• Elections for our branch are almost upon us. The proposed slate of officers for 2010-2012 includes Diane Brenda Bryan for president; Marlene Klotz for 1st vice president (programs); Mary Twitty for 2nd vice president (membership); Pat Wilson for treasurer; Cora Lee Palma-Hayden for recording secretary; and Mary Unterbrink for corresponding secretary.

Instructions for downloading our PDF newsletter:

When you click on a PDF link, your web browser — probably Internet Explorer — will open the newsletter for you right on your screen, or else it will automatically download a copy to your desktop. (What happens depends on your browser’s settings.) PDF files tend to be big. If you are on a dial-up connection, retrieving the file may take a while.

If you don’t want the PDF file to automatically open on your screen and prefer to download it to your desktop, simply right-click with your mouse and select the appropriate option. That’s all there is to it!

NOTE: PDF files require Adobe Acrobat Reader, which is pre-installed on nearly every computer, no matter what operating system you use. But if, by chance, you don’t have Adobe Acrobat Reader already installed, you can get it by clicking on the icon below.
