to the state office. This information may be emailed

Five
Percent or More Growth Over Last Year
Congratulations
and sincere thanks to all 223 local units in good standing who achieved
5% or more growth in membership over last year. Your ability to
accomplish the goal of increasing membership by 5% is outstanding.
Although, we did not reach our state goal of a 5% increase over
last year, we sincerely appreciate the hard work and effort of each
local unit, their board of directors and especially the membership
chair/vice president for a job well done.
