Are you a member?

It’s getting to that time of year when you start to wonder where did it go, what did I do and is the Christmas cake already baked? In the mind of the Progress Association the end of the year is a time of renewal…membership renewal, and with the renewing of memberships is the thought of how to service the membership more effectively.

There has been a bit of discussion around the monthly meeting table this year regarding how to engage and communicate more effectively with the members of the association specifically, and the broader community more generally. There was a strong feeling that there is more that can be done than the monthly print only Chronicles and there are more ways of getting feedback from the community than return surveys.

The new era of social networking that the internet has delivered has amazing potential to connect the community and provide a vehicle to share our common vision for the community and the activities that are available. This year when the membership renewals come out there will also be a request for an email address.

Are you a member…is your neighbour?. At a very reasonable $6/person or $10/family, membership is one way to support the activities of the Progress Association.
