[padg] Re: Disaster Preparedness and Response Program - Registration deadline approaching!

[Julia Merkel <merkeljm@xxxxxxx>]

Kim,
I've got the travel request in and approved to attend but am waiting on 
my daughter's ballet recital date/time as there
was a mix up with the recital hall. I should know by Thursday 
though--hope there's still a seat!
