For every meeting we have, the notes will be posted here for News members to use to catch up on information. 

We will start this today, April 4th, 2018.

Article Assignment:

- At the beginning of each month, we will discuss and assign articles to each News and History Member.

- When you begin working on it, change the status to "In Progress."
