 Dear TBA Executive There is a conflict with the band we have asked to play our Christmas party, one of the members is unavailable for Dec 18th. We are proposing a move to Dec 20, same time and location (Coast Tsaw. 7:00 PM), availablity has been confirmed. We need to know if this presents a conflict with any of you. Are you able to attend Dec 18 (the original date) but not Dec 20th. Is Dec 20th acceptable otherwise? Please reply to dmc@777online.com and let us know. Based on your replies we will either keep Dec 18th and make arrangements with musicians or move to Dec 20th and announce to all TBA members that we are have planned this fantastic event for them to attend.

 TBA website updates - admin

  Hello TBA Members, The release of the new video gaming consoles from Sony and Nintendo has caused quite a stir at retailers, including many consumers camped outside vendors for days. Today on ebay the otherwise $600 machine is listed at a staggering $3600 US. Well.... not to be outdone by these mega corporations, The TBA has released the "250 Fungame Collection", a great collection of free online flash animated video games .... albeit to a much lesser fanfare :) This module has generated some pretty decent traffic on a few of my other sites, so hopefully it will do well here. Check it out here--->> http://www.tsawwassen.org/modules/fungames/ Why have video games on the TBA site? It's one more added value feature to entice the users to return to the site, and besides, they're fun!. If you're like me and have no games on your PC, it's handy when friends drop by and their kids ask to play. This site belongs to you, the the members of the TBA, so it's up to you what content goes on the site. There is a new poll asking what you think of the new games module, whether it should go or stay. Please log on and cast your vote. There is a "forgot password" interface on the homepage, to email you your password if you have forgotten it. Check out the great new downloads as well. I hope this letter finds you all well. Eric webmaster@tsawwassen.org http://www.tsawwassen.org

 TBA website updates - admin

 Hello TBA Members, There have been some updates and additions to the Tsawwassen Business Association website. In keeping with the season, and to keep things fresh, the site is now sporting a green coloured theme. There are two new modules: 1) Chatrooms - Public and private chatting. You must be logged on to use the chatrooms. 2) Headlines - news feeds from CBC Regional/Top Stories/Business/World, New York Times, The Boston Globe. There are a plethora of feeds available. If anyone wants a specific newspaper, let me know. There are 4 new free software downloads offered: 1) Picasa - photo editing software, remove red eye, overlay text and just in time for the holidays, make gift photo CDs, easy to install and use. 2) Firefox - award winning web browser alternative to MS Internet Explorer, if you don't already have it. 3) Google Pack - collection of essential software, ant-virus, anti-spyware and lots more.. pick and choose. 4) Avast anti-virus - powerful AV software with a boot scanner. I personally switched as it found viruses on my machine that AVG had missed. I hope everyone enjoys the new features! Eric webmaster@tsawwassen.org http://www.tsawwassen.org
