Greetings,

Forty-four days before its release, the report is drafted, much has been redrafted and we’ve had to add a daylong meeting to the schedule for hashing out more details. The heat is on!
  • We offer thanks this week to our friends at New Garden Friends Meeting for once again providing a comfortable room and warm hospitality for a two-day retreat we had last week.
  • Volunteer of the Week: Wanda Mobley, executive assistant to the vice president for institutional advancement at Bennett College for Women, who’s lending her invaluable expertise, assistance and resources to the planning committee for our Report Release Ceremony on May 25 (details below). Thanks, Wanda!
  • This week’s progress indicator: More than a hundred community groups have been approached about becoming GTRC Report Receivers. The diverse organizations that have agreed so far include the Greensboro Public Library and Muhammad Mosque No. 92.
