PARTIAL WIND-UP GROUP
We have recently completed a canvass of our non-voting members to determine how many of our members are in the partial wind-up group. (We already had information on the voting members). We would like to thank everyone who responded so quickly to our canvass. Approximately 40% or 340 of our members are in the partial wind-up group.
REMINDER
Ø Please continue to advise us if your e-mail address changes or if you know of some other member’s address change, so that no one misses out on receiving the CLPENS Newsletter.
Ø If you have contact information of other ex-Canada Lifers, please forward this e-mail and the CLPENS website to them. The more members we have, the more credible a force we will be in dealing with the Company.
WE LOOK FORWARD TO A LARGE TURN OUT ON APRIL 27th At THE ROYAL CANADIAN LEGION-BRANCH 66.
