Mar NEWS LETTER 4
Meeting: Monday February 6, 1989 7:00 P.M.
Bryan Masonic Lodge, 107 -A South Main
Bryan, Texas
Dear REACTer,
I don't know what kind of program Pres. Shearer has planned at this time. His
father -in -law was taken back to the hospital Tuesday at noon. We hope he feels
better soon.
We should make every effort to be at the meeting to support our president and
fellow team members. A president cannot run a team without help and a few team
members cannot operate effectively without help. That is why we are a team, to
help one another to help others. Be a team player, in sports or business, the
secret of success is for each player to put the team's goals first. When every-
body pulls together, the team wins and everybody benefits. When the team loses,
nobody wins.
