Hello, All, This is what I thought would happen. Sharon wants to be the intermediary for the NCL invoice to ETS for the sponsorship money. I would appreciate your thoughts on this matter. Thanks.

Thanks for organizing that — I’m sure it was very helpful to the COABE membership. And thanks for the shout-out to the NCL at the beginning, too. :-) > > On the ETS sponsorship, could you give me the name and contact info of the person I should reach out to for invoicing matters, please? Also, do you have any other sponsorship-type possibilities for AEFL Week in the works? I ask because the NCL Board is working on some options, and we want to be sure we know what else might be happening. > > Thanks again for everything. > > Deborah > > >> On Jul 15, 2016, at 3:47 PM, Sharon Bonney <sharonbonney@coabe.org <mailto:sharonbonney@coabe.org>> wrote: >> >> Hi Deborah, >> Happy to help!
