[NHCOLL-L:4841] Attention SPNHC members

[Sendall, Kelly RBCM:EX]

		This is a reminder to all voting SPNHC members that nominations are encouraged for 2 Members at Large positions in the coming election starting this fall. The nomination period closes on August 31 so please consider someone in your institution you feel would be a valuable member on Council. The years ahead for SPNHC are bound to be exciting and significant. We're modernizing with a new web site soon that will be more interactive and a better resource for all members. Our membership reach around the globe is increasing with more meetings likely to be outside North America. Membership is getting younger and many new and exciting changes are in the midst. Now more than ever we need to be sure we have a vibrant and valuable council to carry us into the future. Please look around you and consider nominating someone in your institution. If you would like to submit a name send me a note or fax by August 31.

		I will be sending out a message to all members using the email address provided with your membership application. If you see this bulletin and don't receive the email from me by the end of this week please check with the Treasurer Barb Brown at bbrown at amnh.org to see if your email address needs to be corrected.

Sincerely,
