This photo of our mailing committee at work is from several years ago. When our circulation exceeded 1,000 copies, we needed many more volunteers to help with preparing the newsletter for mailing each month. During the pandemic in 2020, we began using a mailing service to eliminate contact for our volunteers. In 2026, the TCSRA Executive Board voted to offer this newsletter via email only.<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
