In a Facebook posting advertising the meeting, Leonard wrote, “Please feel free to forward this to anyone and everyone that you think may be willing to help. Your attendance to this meeting does not commit your participation. But, you will have opportunities to commit your participation.”

Please bring your calendars, schedules, notebooks and decision makers. This will be both an informational meeting and a working meeting. It’s COLD
