Who's Who 2010 Just Released

Here's the new Who's Who 2010!   (online at www.lwvddh.org/whoswho.pdf)
 
Thank you! to the following people and organizations:
 
Dianne Locke for the layout, numerous revisions, and for successfully requesting funding from the Dearborn Heights Rotary
 
Judy Carty, Judy Patrick, Kathy Gapa, Dianne Locke, Chris Sullivan, Mary Bugeia and Betsy Cushman for updating and proofing. 
 
Dearborn Federal Savings Bank and Dearborn Heights Rotary for help with underwriting.
 
Anyone interested in helping distribute these around our community, email us at lwvddh@mailcity.com.  Ask about locations too if you want to get one (or 2 or 3).  We don't mind if you pass them around to others.   The more we know about our elected officials the better.  More importantly, the better our democracy when these officials know what the voters think.  Our Who's Who includes email addresses and other contact information.
