        <p class="MsoNormal">Out of an abundance of caution, looking at
          the upward trend in COVID numbers, we have decided to postpone
          the District 8 seminar scheduled for next week and reschedule
          it for a later date, most likely in March.  If you have
          already paid, we will honor those tickets at the rescheduled
          event.  We are sorry for the last minute notice, but thought
          it was in the best interest of everyone if we postpone for
          now.  Chief Norman is still looking forward to coming out to
          speak with us, so we will have a reschedule date out soon.<o:p></o:p></p>

        <p class="MsoNormal">As voted on at our last D8 meeting, we are
          getting back to having our annual seminar.  This year’s
          seminar will be held on Thursday, January 13<sup>th</sup> at
          The Manor in West Boylston and will feature retired Chief John
          Norman from FDNY.  Chief Norman will be sharing his years of
          experience with us in a seminar titled: 
          <b><i>Leadership on the Fireground</i></b>.  The cost for the
          seminar is $25 per person; payment can be in the form of check
          or through Venmo.  Information on payment is on the attached
          poster.  Please circulate this within your departments, and
          reach out to either myself or Chief Z with any questions. 
          Please note, we are not going to be accepting any payments at
          the door, so make arrangements to get payment in before the
          seminar.  Chief Z will send out invoices to any departments
          who need them.<o:p></o:p></p>
