Camp Echo E-List Grows Longer
-----------------------------
Many people responded to my preliminary mailing and request for additional
names and E-mail addresses. Thanks to everyone who did so, the list grew this
week from 75 to about 260. Send me more names and E-mail addresses!  If your
name appears twice, I have two E-mail addresses for you. If you only want one
copy, let me know which address you prefer. If you want it sent to a different
address, let me know. If your name is wrong, let me know.

Camp Echo Alumni Board Forming
------------------------------
We are forming a group that will meet, in person, here in Evanston, four there
will be one event each season. If you would like to join the Echo Alumni
Board, let me know.

Cahills Old & New
-----------------
After seven seasons of use, we retired the Cahill pickup truck this fall.
Recently, though, John Cahill (Jr and Sr) donated a replacement pickup! Rob
Johnston was in town, and he and Brian McGinn fixed the taillights. We are
looking for a hearty soul who is willing to drive the new truck up to camp.
Oh, by the way, the cargo will be about two dozen 4' by 8' styrofoam bricks
that were removed from the roof over the YMCA pool.
