Hello Kantara Community, While most of the Kantara staff is virtual, you may not be aware that Kantara's home office is located in Piscataway, New Jersey. Due to the storm Sandy, some of the processing of membership applications and invoices has been slowed this week. Many are still with out power, internet and phone. Thus I wanted to assure any of you who have made contact regarding for items which require home office processing - the office and staff should be back up and running next week to business as usual. Thanks for your patience at this time. For those of you on the US East Coast please take extra care!
