[Athen] ATHEN Strategic Plan

[Ron Stewart]

Good morning, I wanted to share with you the Business Plan that was
developed by Howard and his strategic planning committee.  In order to make
this plan happen we need to increase the resources that ATHEN has available
so the following change in membership dues has been proposed and approved by
the Exec Committee.  These cost increases have to be voted on and approved
by the membership.  I have been working with Sean Keegan to make sure we get
a good voting system in place as well, and you should be receiving an email
about that in about two weeks.

 

Proposed Membership Fee Increases:

 

Individual $75.00

Educational Institutions: $200 with a limit of 5 members, one of which is a
voting member.  

Non-Profit AT related organizations: $200 with one non-voting representative

For Profit AT related organizations: $400 with one non-voting
representative.

 

I have already been asked about those of you who have already renewed via
AHG registration, and you will be grandfathered in for this year.  The other
question that has already come up is what do we get for our money.  Read the
Business Plan and those details are explained very well.

 

We would also appreciate your constructive feedback, and I really want to
thank the committee for the hard work that went into it.

 

Ron Stewart

ATHEN President
