CTC VISTA NEWS

WINTER 2005
We've had a doozy of a winter here in Boston, as shown in the images below taken by Saul during the Blizzard of '05 a few weeks ago. We're looking forward to the promise of spring, as we turn our attention to life after VISTA for current members, and begin to recruit sites and VISTAs for 2005-6. Please note our new Alumni News section; we welcome more news from Alums who are receiving the newsletter. Contact daniel.schackman@umb.edu.
