There were many interesting responses as members gave their answers to this introduction ice breaker topic.

Ryan McBee explained the project of putting<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span>together a list of Legislator Senators and House of representative's by chapter members using the zip codes to see what districts members live in and who their Senators and House of representative's and to see if chapter members have the same Senators and House of representative's district members. Ryan sent this list to our chapter members listserve. We then had a discussion on how we can use the Legislator district information to invite Legislator members to our chapter meeting to talk about Legislative issues that we are concern to improve our community lifestyles. Kirk ask chapter members what we want to do for a chapter activity in August instead of a regular chapter meeting and bring suggestions to later chapter meeting. Kirk played the Presidential release for April.
