To formalize our news distribution and mailing list, we are moving to the use of a mail service, Mailchimp. We will test it on Monday, August 17 with our first message -- the Midmonth Snapshot and invitation to our August 27 membership meeting. Please be sure to watch for your email. Sometimes, member mail service providers like Outlook, AT&T, AOL, and Gmail may “SPAM” Mailchimp distributed messages, and we want to be sure you are getting ours without delay! So please check your SPAM folder if you don’t get the message in your INBOX and right click to say that we are a trusted sender. This is how it will appear in your inbox and below, the way it will look when you open it.
