Mini-Bond

523 4th

Ave. SE, Jamestown, ND 58401

Why a Mini-Bond?

In January, Trinity approved a budget

that eliminated 12 hours per week of

administrative support time. These

reduced hours now have been fully

implemented.

In June, a regular Bond will return when

our regular communications assistant

(Bonnie Jo) is in the office, but for May,

the mini-Bond provides basic information.
