An email was sent to Chiefs regarding past due and active list.  If emails are received by Linda, Susan, or Karen, they will forward them to the District Reps to keep track.  Linda brought up about District Reps contributing to get involved and encouraging membership.  Jimmy and Steve stated that they will send out a follow up email to the Chiefs regarding this email to make certain they received them.  If questions arise from the emails about PO's showing up being due for membership fees, please contact Susan as there are some counties showing up past due when in fact they are not because of the new membership year schedule.  Nothing new for corporate members.
