Should this not be posted down in the members/ events section?

No, it should be mailed to the membership so they can participate and see the benefits of this club.

John I agree 100% but I'm talking about the posting alone.....It was posted in the Howler about the hunt and to contact the district rep for checkin times and locations.

I will gladly mail out the Howler to EVERY SINGLE MEMBER....but I need the go ahead from the administration and will also need addresses.

It's only fitting. The same day the Steelers win the Super Bowl district 6 wins the hunt. That's the Burgh for ya.

Trappinjohn I can't say what other district officers do but any member in District 3 that has a e-mail listed gets a e-mail on all events as well as a copy of the Quarterly newsletter e-mailed to them. I also try to call the others to help keep them informed of what is going on.

I know were your coming from.   I offered to keep sending renewal notices and got the same.   Not trying to stir anything, I'm more than willing to help too.

Thank you Jeff.   Glad to here it.
If as much effort was put to getting the info to the non-internet members as some do bickering on here, we be a much better club.

 ASK MEMBERS. Some members can get copy by way of email. Others send copy. Save money. Also Howler is no were as important as subscription to Predator extreme. It will generate more members.

I agree TrappinJohn, you have to focus on the club and its members as a whole, not the few of us that do get on the boards

If you don't start letting the members know what's going on, they won't renew.  Club loses money.
You can send a lot of letters for the price of a jack-in-the-box.  I have been to a few hunts and picnics.   There is a ton of donations that could be used to raise money also.

Swarter, I would like to know also.
The only reason I ask bout active members is because you figure postage costs for mailing.

the average cost of one mailing to the entire membership was approx. $145.00 if i'm not mistaken. this was from last years mailings we did.

if membership #'s are up and postage is up..well than tack in a few more bucks. the money raised at the expo should help with more mailings.
