Congratulations to DIANN BROWN and SUSAN MARKLE for a very successful GIFT
(Geography Information for Future Teachers) workshop held at Bowling Green
University.  60 preservice teachers were in attendance and according to the
evaluations it was very well received.  We have four other regional GIFT
programs in the making and an update on those will be forthcoming.

GEOGRAPHY ACTION is well underway with DWIGHT MILLER leading the way.
Please participate and promote the activities by encouraging your
colleagues and peers to do likewise.  A flier was mailed out to all members
on the mailing list.  If you need posters, brochures, or lesson plans,
email my office with the number you need and I can mail it out to you.
Thank you DWIGHT!
