I had a chance to get together for lunch with Joe Ellis, former Executive Director at the Mission, and learned that he has a birthday this Saturday. I think it would be great if a few of you who know Joe would send him an email to let him know how much we appreciate his work here in Tacoma. For those of you who may not know, Joe was the director when Jefferson and Colonial Sq. were put together and was the mind behind the Challenge Learning Center and a lot of the programs we currently enjoy. He was also the genius who hired Bob Killmer and Kathy Austin. His email is jellis@hackergroup.comHe is a successful businessman in Seattle working for the Hacker Group, a direct mail services company. Happy Birthday Joe.David
