The membership committee maintained its efforts in keeping
members informed and interested in section and subsection events.
Activities of the committee includes:
1. Communicating with members about subsection events.
This includes innovative hardcopy methods that involve bulk mailing of
postcard meeting announcements. These were found to be highly effective.
2. Somehat intermittant reminders about the availablity of
the INDICATOR online.
3. Reminding new members about how the section works and
the online INDICATOR.
4. The committee assisted the continuing education committee
in hosting a leadership event on communication.
5. The committee tested and used a new e-mail system that
allows us to personalize e-mail messages. These appear to receive
much more attention than just regular e-mail blasts.
