The Membership committee has begun work for the 2005-06 year. For the fall conference, the committee is working on the membership gift, photo buttons, and new member reception. We will also be working up the name badges and taking care of the registration for the fall conference.

If you have not yet done so, please go online and update your profile and apply for 05-06 membership. Please go to the following link to apply for membership: www.dedcmdasfaa.org/docs/forms/memApp.html. The membership dues are $40 for the year. There are many exciting and informative events in the works for next year.

Also, the Tri-state website has been updated and there is now a membership directory available to all members (electronic or paper). I encourage you to update your profile with your job descriptions and then explore the new website that is updated often. Visit www.dedcmdasfaa.org.

I can be contacted at gagnon@msmary.edu with any comments or suggestions.

Thank you and have a great fall semester!
