I apologize for the messed up formatting in the prior announcement. Here is the important message from Stu:
May 6, 2014
NHPA Membership,
Effective July 1st, 2014, Sara Otto of Minnesota will be assigned the position of eNewsline Editor.
Sara has been the Minnesota Ringer Digest Editor for the past seven years and also has extensive experience in e-publications. She works for the Lupus Foundation of Minnesota (LFM), and has been in charge of their newsletter and other communications for years. Sara has transitioned both the LFM newsletter and the Ringer Digest to online publications, in conjunction with a vendor called Constant Contact, which she will be using for eNewsline as well.
Paula Summerlin, who has been the Newsline Editor since 2001, will continue on to complete the last printed issue of Newsline, which will be the November/December 2014 issue. The NHPA Council thanks Paula for her dedication and expertise in producing Newsline, which we all love to read.
Starting in January 2015, the printed Newsline magazine will be replaced with eNewsline, which will be free and will be delivered directly to email, allowing our members to read the publication in full color, on their computer or other devices. The email will provide more opportunities for direct communications with the officers, as well as links to clubs, registration form and other information, even advertisers.
For those who do not have email, we will be suggesting ways for you to access the news, but the best way is to find someone who can print you a copy to read. eNewsline will also be made available on our NHPA website.
The increasing cost of publishing and mailing the printed Newsline, and decreasing subscriptions, has predicated this change to an enewsletter. The NHPA will see a huge cost savings, yet will allow us to gain visibility, as well as bring news of the association to the entire membership at no cost to the members.
Speaking for the whole NHPA Council, we welcome Sara to the NHPA Staff and look forward to working with her.
Thank You.
Stuart Sipma
NHPA - President
