I want to send the message below (or a version of it) either to the entire membership, or selected members. What do I do in this case? The letter itself is not yet finished, so I don't need it forwarded - but please let me know 1) if it's an appropriate use of the membership database; and 2) how to send it if it is appropriate. Thanks!

The small subject line window on this computer showed only Jazz Notes dead. The line that was missing is strategic. Joel Levin On 7/2/09, David R.

JJA members in the NYC area are invited to contact YE at yervin at urbanassembly.org for details on this program, which requires a commitment of two afternoons a month from October through June for 90 minute sessions, a two-hour training session and email contact with the mentees. The mentees will come from theme based schools like Performing Arts, Music and Arts, Arts and Letters, etc. There is a screening process for the mentors (background check, etc,) and a commitment of one, preferably two years, and no financial stipend.
