Dear Rebecca:

I noticed you are based in Florida.  I am a songleader in NY who is
seriously considering relocating to the Ft Lauderdale or Miami area in
the coming year.  I would be very interested in connecting with a
network of songleaders and cantorial soloists in the area, if such a
thing exists.  If not, it would be great to organize something like a
South Florida Jewish Songleaders Network.   Would appreciate your
thoughts on this.

Thanks.
Eliyahu in NY
