<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Hello UNYOC Board,</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Earlier this month, we sent out an email informing the membership that we were planning to remove people from the list who had not renewed their membership in the last five years. This resulted in a spike
in membership renewals, which is great! We are actually up to 74 members, which is pretty awesome for this time of year as we typically don’t see numbers this high until after the annual meeting when a portion of people tend to renew. While this caused a spike
in membership, this also caused quite a few people of our membership to panic and reach out to me as well as Nell (as list coordinator and sender of the email) asking if they are current members as they no longer can see the current membership list. One individual
actually accidentally paid their membership dues twice for this year. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I think to prevent future confusion, we should have some kind of mechanism in place so that individuals can see if they are current members. Yes, every individual who renews does get a receipt – if they pay
by paypal, they receive a copy of their transaction to their email, or if they pay by mail, I send them a PDF receipt via email within two weeks of receiving their membership dues. In theory, individuals should be able to check their own records to verify
if they have paid for the year or not, but I think it would be easier for our membership to see somewhere on the site if they are a current member or not rather than trying to hunt down a receipt.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I would like to propose adding the current member directory back to the site, but having it only be the names of the individuals without any other information – no email addresses or other contact information
listed. Is this something we could consider? Thanks, all.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
