To all ABANA members in or near New Jersey:
     
     Plans are underway to form a New Jersey Chapter of ABANA.  
     Accordingly, we'd like to invite any ABANA members in the area to 
     become "charter" members.  (There'll be no special privileges, except 
     the opportunity to get your say in early.)  
     
     For the present, the meeting place will be at or near Allaire State 
     Park, Wall Twp., Monmouth Co., NJ.  (This location is chosen because 
     those of us who are starting this organization are all volunteers at 
     Historic Allaire Village.  No meetings have yet been organized.  
     
     We are especially interested in persons who would wish to become 
     actively involved in organizing the chapter.  However, please respond 
     if you expect you'd want to be included in our membership, even if you 
     know you don't want to do any organizing. (I am constitutionally 
     opposed to twisting arms -- unhappy volunteers are worse than no 
     volunteers at all.)  The higher the count of ABANA members to start 
     with, the better we'll like it.  
     
     And if you're not an ABANA member but are nonetheless interested, feel 
     free to respond as well.
     
     Please send your expressions of interest or your questions to me.  I 
     will try to answer inquiries promptly.
