From the Backshop

Welcome to the second edition of the Rocky Mountain Region's Callboard. 

In this issue, we've gotten some more contributors on board, and have lots of new information, tips, and regions news. We received many positive comments on the new format, and will continue to try and make the most of bringing you Region news in a more dynamic way. 

As I mentioned in our premiere, the real success of the Callboard comes from you, the members of the NMRA's Rocky Mountain Region - and this issue contains contributions and news, despite trying circumstances, from some of our region's members who've suffered great losses at the hands of this year's extreme weather. Please keep them in your thoughts as you read along.

More information, workshop hints, and Region news will be coming your way in the weeks and months ahead. Fall and winter in our portions of the country make for some great photo opportunities - please send along your best shot to share. The deadline to get your articles and photos in for the Winter 2014 edition of the Callboard is January 17, 2014. Thanks!

Doug Whetstone and I continue looking forward to helping grow the Callboard and welcome everyone's input on how it's evolving - please feel free to drop me a line anytime at jwp519@gmail.com.

Now, back to the heavy lifting!
