Special Note: Website Upgrades Taking Place This Weekend From the evening of Friday, August 31, through Monday, September 3, we will be making some major upgrades and changes to the layout of the SGRA Website. The changes in the layout are part of an effort to streamline our website to make it easier to navigate for new visitors, as well as make it easier to locate the most popular areas of the website. Because our website is constantly growing, and we often update features and content daily, the main page can sometimes become cluttered, so we have decided to create some new sections, leaving the main page free for content specifically related to the organization and our activities. Superstition ParaTalk TONIGHT (Friday) At 8:00pm With Labor Day weekend upon us, we’ve decided to change our ParaTalk from its regular Sunday evening to tonight instead. We’ll be opening the chat room from 8:00pm – 10:00pm to discuss the subject of superstitions! Join us for a great discussion on the most popular superstitions, their origins, and also some you may not have known about. We’ll post some trivia questions too, so be sure to bring along your lucky charms! To access the ParaChat simply logon to our website at www.sgra.org at 8:00pm and click the chat icon on the page, or go directly to www.sgra.org/chat/parachat.htm. | Follow the SGRA Team to New Hampshire ONLINE This Saturday members of the SGRA Team will be traveling to Exeter, New Hampshire, to participate in the Exeter UFO Festival, featuring guest speaker and SGRA friend Richard Dolan.
