[C320-list] membership

[Jeff Hare]

Hi All,

  On the new site, the new account registration forms aren't opened up yet.
We're creating a new process for getting people website membership accounts
and joining the association, paying online, etc.  I've been a bit busy, so I
have to apologize for delay in getting that part tested and rolled out.


Shameless plug follows: :)
=======================
As a side note, we've got 750+ member accounts on the website,
~250 subscribers to this discussion list, over 2GB of member-submitted
photos in the photo gallery with well over 1200 hulls sailing out there.

...but only about 300 people are actually current C320IA members.  
Quite a few people didn't renew their memberships for one reason 
or another and the enrollment rate seems to be dropping some 
(or at least not keeping pace with the ownership population).

Not to sound like a public radio station or anything, but the small 
fee ($24/yr) we ask for membership is really to help support the 
things it takes to run this discussion list, the website and 
sponsor events for the members.  It doesn't pay any of us for our 
time or effort in maintaining it because it's a volunteer group.

Heck,  $24 US,  that's like 35 cents Canadian these days!

Please Join if you aren't already a member, if for nothing else than 
to allow us to upgrade to a proper web & database server, keep the 
C320 loaner Toolbox program in operation and be able to sponsor a 
few fun events for the membership. 

We've got a pretty decent organization here, so if you've let your 
membership lapse, or just never got around to joining, now would be 
a great time to do sign up.
