The WGA Board of Directors met this past Sunday, February 21 for their annual meeting. Due to the Virtual LCG Event held the same day, the BOD decided to split the meeting in half and will complete the business of the annual meeting on March 7th. The meeting minutes, in their entirety, will be posted shortly thereafter. Keep your suggestions coming. We want to hear from our members!
