wyo218 Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 Curious if AACA has an established procedure for alerting or notifying a "new local club" of members that have changed their address and may be looking for a club in the new location to join.It seems that we may be losing members when then move when they still have the AACA national membership, but may not be familiar with local clubs where they are moving to retiring to....they might join a similar club not AACA.Thanks,Roger in Punta Gorda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 Roger ~ If someone still belongs to the National they get the magazine. In it are a list of Regions and their locations as well as the President's name. I don't think it is unreasonable to assume that if someone wants to join a Region badly enough they will find one. Barring that, they can contact HQ to get local Region info. I think it is expecting too much for HQ to chase us around the country.It's snowing here tonight. Don't you really miss that? Better than hurricanes eh what? Howard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Moskowitz Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 Roger,Another member brought this up several months ago in a phone conversation. As we get a little more sophisticated in our computer system we might be able to automatically generate a leter when we get an address change. Too many other things have to happen before this and Howard is right, we have two less staff members at HQ and it would be hard to do now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyo218 Posted November 1, 2004 Author Share Posted November 1, 2004 Thanks Howard,No, snowstorms aren't too bad. I guess it HAD to snow for Halloween to happen in Cheyenne. It was 85 degrees when we came back from watching the kids in historic Punta Gorda.Thanks for the info. I wrote because we are concerned about attracting new members that might retire in the area. It was discussed that some might just join another club just because they are new to the area and I guess they don't make the effort to find a AACA club like I did. We are getting prepared for our 2005 annual Gilcrest Park show, but our storage trailer is a mess...it tumbled 1 and 1/2times. But we are survivors.rog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyo218 Posted November 1, 2004 Author Share Posted November 1, 2004 Thanks,Yes, we were thinking the computer could generate a list for local chapters. Thanks for your information.rog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 Roger ~ Have you considered updating your bio. You are still listed as being in Cheyenne and we know you have moved to sunny, windy Punta Gorda, Floriduh. Howard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyo218 Posted November 2, 2004 Author Share Posted November 2, 2004 Howard,Bio is updated...250 characters doesn't give you much chance to give much info.Stay warm.rog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ted sweet Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 i think we even had problems getting a list of aaca members that live in area served by the region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Moskowitz Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 Ted, that is not correct. If we are supplied with zip codes and those zip codes are appropriate for the Chapter or Region, we can and will provide the list. Not sure what "problems" you are talking about.
