Mailings from the STC Office

• STC members who did not pay their dues by mid-February received reminder notices from the STC office.
• In early March, all eligible members will receive ballots and voting instructions for the upcoming election for Society office. Information on candidates is included in the March 2007 issue of Intercom.

Chapter Leaders’ Monthly Reminders

March

• Membership fees are past due as of April 1, 2007. Chapter presidents will receive a complete chapter roster in the first week of April. It will be divided into two sections: paid and unpaid memberships. Please remember to thank your paid members for renewing or joining, and encourage unpaid members to rejoin.
• Start thinking about 2008 international competitions. To receive competition mailings, designate an individual to serve as interim competition manager pending final appointment of next year’s manager.
• Community leaders should remind members that those who have not renewed their dues will receive their last copy of Intercom in March.
• Report community election results to the STC office.
• Forward the names of those community leaders who will attend Leadership Day to the Society office. Please e-mail this information to Elaine Gilliam or fax it to +1 (703) 522-2075. Leadership Day will take place during the annual conference.
• Send a current version of your chapter’s bylaws to Peg Cottrell for the STC office files.
