AWN WEBSITE POLICIES

Page 5 JULY 2014 AWN Newsletter

Mass E—mail From AWN Website It is AWN’s policy that the organization will not send mass e-mail to the membership for anything other than AWN events or notices. This policy is in place for two purposes: (1) to keep down the amount of e-mail that is sent to the membership from AWN; (2) to keep down the amount of work it takes to do an e-mail to all members. The ability to send e-mail to the entire membership is only available to the Webmaster and the Membership Director. If we were to do a mass e-mailing for one event, we would be obligated to do this for every member and for every event.

A RESERVATION MADE IS A RESERVATION PAID—NOON MEETINGS REMINDER

Our policy is that we require all reservations made for AWN noon meetings be paid regardless

of whether or not you attend. This is because AWN must also pay the number of meals reserved

with the Amarillo Club, even if that number is more than the actual attendance.

While a reservation is not required to attend a meeting, we encourage and need our members

to reserve for meetings so that we can obtain a close estimate of the number of people that will be

attending in order to notify the club how many tables to set up. Reservations also allow us to give

our speakers an idea of how many handouts and materials might be required for a meeting.

We ask that you keep this policy in mind when you make reservations. Thank you for your

consideration.
