[Communications] Summer newsletter - story list and next steps

[Amy Olson]

Hi JW - Yes, please add the upcoming events, that would be great! 

I am working on the rest of the stories and will definitely wrap up a draft this eve - Lorraine has been editing and sent me some updated Word files, so no need for you to read through all of the content.

I’ll be back in touch this eve - I promise. My mom has been keeping me very busy, lol.

And I saw copy from those garden stories over the last few weeks abnd I could help with formatting some of those if you tell me which one(s) to work on.  But that is a great list of stories!
