ABANA Affiliate Liaison Letter, January 2003

Are you getting a little stressed out thinking of new ideas for your blacksmith club? Then get a load of this! Go to the ABANA website www.abana.org and click on "Affiliates," then look under "PDF Files." Then click on "Successful Affiliate Activities." Read what it says. Your Member Services Committee has been working hard to work out a system whereby it can be a clearing house for affiliates to share ideas. Do you have a good thing going for your club-then share it with all of the other affiliates. Wouldn't you be tickled pink if you got all kinds of ideas on activities that other affiliates found to be successful? Ideas that you could use. If So… Talk with your affiliate officers-talk with your affiliate board members. Encourage them to participate in this program Remember when you were a wee tot in Miss. Larson's first grade class, and how excited you were when she said, "Now boys and girls, it is time for Show and Tell?" And now, your Member Services Committee says, "Now guys and gals, it is time for Show and Tell." Have you been wondering how you might communicate a little bit more with ABANA? Then get a load of this! Go to the ABANA website and click on "Affiliates," then look under "PDF Files." Then click on "A Program To Enhance ABANA-Affiliate Communication." Read what it says. Your Member Services Committee has been working hard to set up a program to make it happen. I'd be willing to bet the farm (well, if not the whole farm, maybe the back 10) that you would really like it if your ideas could go right to the ABANA Board members. Talk to your officers and board members and ask them to participate by sending an e-mail to Bob Jacoby Bob Fredell, Chairman Member Services Committee (763) 389-5119 bobfredell@abana.org
