Cetronia Chronicle

March 2024 | Issue #45

Greetings!

Spring is in the air! That means there will be more people out and about which tends to lead to more traffic and accidents. Please be safe out on the roads and always pull over for emergency vehicles.

We have been busy gearing up for several public events that include your chance to see our facility. Please consider joining us and supporting our lifesaving mission.

One easy way to help, is to purchase an item or two off of our Amazon Wishlist. These items will be used for our raffle and silent auction.

I would be honored to meet you. If you attend any of our events, please make it a point to say hi.

Stay well,

Robert F. Mateff Sr.

Chief Executive Officer
