News from the Chair                                _____________


 

FINAL BULLETIN- (A Look Back)

 

This is our final printed bulletin. We have discussed this with our board, members and our supporters and this will be the final paper copy. Thank you all for filling out a survey. We may have future mailings, etc however the printed version will be no more.  It is both sad and invigorating. Let’s take a look back-

 

Sadly this change came about due to rising costs of post office and requirements by them that increased our cost significantly versus our support program. Running a deficit is not a choice. Thankfully technology has given us an alternative! It also has provided us with new improvements !

 

ELECTRONIC VERSION

 

Some of you that have not supplied your email address will need to do so in order to continue to receive the new version of our Bulletin. Our electronic version will be available as a demo on the website at www.sme43.org

 

SPONSORSHIP

 

Support is very important to a non profit organization such as ours. Without supporters such as yourself and our great sponsors we would not be able to provide the scholarships that we do at this time.

 

New Sponsorship opportunities are now available- Please go to the website www.sme43.org and look at the new sponsorships. These offer more choices, better exposure for your company as a supporter (Mailings- 1200 year vs. 2400 web hits per Month); motion or video options (can’t say it in a small picture how about a GIF slide show or Video?); and versatility to change your message seasonally not to mention a link back to your website.

 

 

 


Thanks

Dean Phillips
