First things first: the League office has moved! Now it’s at 2501 San Pedro NE, Suite 216, just a ways further north than it used to be.
In other news, a reminder that the old Yahoo-based LWVCNM Topics listserv is dead and gone. If you haven’t already joined the new list, lwvcnmtopics@mailman.swcp.com, maybe it’s time you gave it a try!
