[aavl] CALLING ALL LIST MEMBERS

[MARILYN LUTTER]

Hi Nola and all,

Yes we should be having a  board meeting.  I  reminded Oral by phone after I 
read  your message.  He hadn't heard directly from Carla as of Thursday when 
he last checked his email.

Telephone is still the most efficient way to reach him.  Carla should know 
how to do that.

Do you have any suggestions about programming?  That question is for 
everyone.

I  think it was good that Robert sent his message to all of us.  We needed 
to start communication again.

Also I  remember that Teddy Joy and I  were appointed to a  committee to try 
to reach out to seniors  in the Reno area in relation to our convention.

yes teddy I do agree we have lost quite a few of the hardest workers but I 
am sure we can develop enough interest in the older members as they age. 
keep it going Rob thats great with me.

  I haven't personally found a need to post **up to now,** bit I feel 
listservs can be a valuable communications tool.

    Hello Robert,

    Unfortunately, in the 11 years since AAVL was established, historical 
memory has declined.  That has happened because we have lost many of the 
founding members.  As the founding president, I am and have been for a 
number of years, a life member.  I believe that our former newsletter editor 
was also a life  member.  Jeanne Sanders from Florida also a life member.

    Are you collaborating with any of the AAVL board members?  The only 
founding  member left are those I mentioned, Charlie Crawford and myself. 
It saddens me that so many wonderful members have passed but also the 
historical memory seems to have died with them.  We who are life members 
paid $200.00 to ensure that status when Al Gayzagian was our treasurer and 
provided us with such reliable records.

    I think that if there is no historical commitment, this effort for 
reconnection, as sincere as it may be, is obviously useless.  There are too 
many lists for current issues and AAVL has lost its past.  Thanks for 
trying, Robert.

      Dear listers,

      Do any of you know of any others who have been a member AAVl in the 
past or may want to become members now.  There is always a problem with 
people not being sure their dues being paid up.  I keep getting hits on this 
list by people wanting to be subscribed to it.  They are not on my somewhat 
limited listing of members so I cannot oblige because the list is only for 
paid up members of AAVL.  To my knowledge, AAVL has no lifetime memberships 
and "Life" member of ACB still leaves annual membership dues a requirement. 
Membership on this list depends upon current membership.

      When I started this list, I believed that it might promote 
communication among AAVL membership, either chit-chat type or AAVL business 
type.

      QUESTIONS:  Do you want the list to continue?

      Do any of you want to find other members to be subscribed?  Only I can 
finalize that.

      Best wishes for upcoming holidays, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, oh 
and yes, the biggy of Halloween.  smiles.

      Robert Rogers
