If your local masters club or LMSC issues a newsletter, how do they publish it?
1. Printed on paper & conventionally mailed only.
2. Via the internet or email only.
3. Both internet/email and printed on paper & conventionally mailed.
Ken,
In Virginia, the LMSC newsletter goes out 4 times a year. The VMST team newsletter goes out the other 8 months. I edit both so they follow the same format, the LMSC issue includes info from other clubs, if I can get any. It is mailed only at this time and runs about $.85 per copy. The printer mails it bulk with bar coding from Richmond. I get mine in Va Bch within a week. Meet directors are good about getting entries and results to me in a timely manner.
I think what Cindy mentioned about Colorado is the best way. I hope to offer ours by email on request. I strongly oppose email only. I find it difficult to read newsletter that way - maybe it's the trifocals. Also, sometimes we don't realize how many people use computers for email only with no attachments, or how many don't use computers at all.
