Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle!BHHS wants to be as green as we can be. Therefore, we are asking you to send your email address to our Membership Chair, Robin Randall-Milliken ([email protected]), if you are ready, willing, and able to receive your newsletter electronically rather than by paper and “snail mail.” This would save BHHS money for postage and paper, and you’d also be promoting care and concern for our environment – a double winner.
