Memberopoly in review
Minnesota has a hefty membership goal of 26,014 members. On the National membership report of May 14, Minnesota reported 23,190 members. This number is 876 members short of where we were a year ago. Membership is still trickling in, but not at a rate we need to meet the goal.
President: Thanks to the units for inviting me over
I hope you are planning to join us in Willmar to hear about all the successes of the units in the department. I am looking forward to seeing everyone at convention.
