Executive Director's Report

Just a quick note to say that we have a new Executive Director but the changeover will not happen until July 1, 2025. I am pleased to report that the Board has approved Tom Almerini as your new ED. Until July, all questions, comments and the like still come to me. You will learn more about Tom in the next issue.

After discussion and a financial review, the Board has voted to raise dues for mail subscribers. Electronic dues will remain unchanged but mail delivery will add an additional $25.00 to the $15.00 basic dues rate. What was interesting to me was that when we began the $3.00 differential for mail as opposed to electronic delivery, it actually caused more electronic subscribers and new members to choose mail as the difference was too small and the desirability of a paper copy too great. It also did not begin to cover the cost and we are again losing about $3,000 annually. If nothing is done, we will end up bankrupt in about 6 years.

You will not see this “hit” until May 1, 2025, so if you want to renew now, you can renew for up to 3 years at the old rates.
