A Bit of History

For approximately twenty years, board members and volunteers of the IRA published and mailed a printed newsletter a few times each year. One such issue is linked from the image below, and links to other issues we have been given are listed in publication date order. If you have printed or scanned copies of any of the other issues, we would be happy to include them here. Please email a digital copy to us via the email address on our Contact Us page. And thank you to those who have submitted these issues to help us preserve the system’s history for future generations.
