Member "Quick Survey"

Here is the question we pose to our members this month. This should only take seconds to do and your input will be most helpful in our effort to serve you.

Question: Do you attend Local Section Meetings? (yes/no)

If no, is the reason:

1. Too costly
2. Too far to travel
3. No topics of interest
4. Other (please indicate your reason for not attending)
