Welcome to the spring Blind Californian. You'll want to read President Wilkinson's column. It's upbeat, just what we need to bring on spring. We're not out of the financial woods yet, but we're sure working on it!

But before running on further, let me update you about Mitch Pomerantz. On February 8, 2019, Donna wrote:

"Very late last night or early this morning, Mitch had emergency brain surgery to remove blood that was putting pressure on his brain. The surgery went well and it was successful, thank God!"

Many days of updates and "get well" emails followed on various list, and last I heard, Mitch is home and recovering nicely and is back in action for ACB and CCB. We wish him good barks!

We hear a bit from Associate Editor Susan Glass as she tells us about the Magical Playground project and describes a visit to Fort Point National Park. We can tell from the Governmental Affairs Committee Report that CCB is in the thick of it in the upcoming legislation cycle, and you'll want to be involved. And there's a poem by Bonnie Rennie and many timely announcements.

So enjoy the spring BC, and be sure to attend the CCB Conference and Convention this June!
