to receive your membership card. Suggested annual contribution is 300
Pesos; this is a family membership.
When you receive your membership card, you will be able to use it at various
Bucerias establishments to receive a discount or perhaps a cup of coffee
(click the
Discounts).
Amigos de Bucerias meetings are held every month on the first Saturday of
the month at 10:00 a.m. Jalisco time. See
Meetings for details.
The Membership Committee maintains address records of members, of people
interested in Amigos de Bucerias, yearly donation records, committee member
lists, membership promotion participants, and works to enlist new members in
the organization. An important element of this committee is to keep members
advised of what is happening within the organization, when future meetings
are being held, and what will be discussed.
We are in need of volunteers to do this work. Please contact
Harold Sokolove,
harold.sokolove@gmail.com if you are interested. This is a way to become genuinely involved
in Amigos de Bucerias.
Membership Committee Report Jan 5, 2007
Curt Firestone reports there are currently 28 memberships, representing
approximately 50 individuals (a membership represents one or two individuals
within a family). This compares to 43 memberships for 2006. Any members who
have not yet renewed for 2007 are asked to please do so ASAP; our membership
goal for 2007 is 100 members. In an effort to “grow” our membership of
Mexican nationals, he asks that each Amigos member also submit the name and
contact information of at least one Mexican national to the Membership
committee. Committee members will then contact these individuals to explain
the organization’s goals and benefit to the community, and encourage them to
become members.
The English version of the Amigo’s informational brochure has been completed
and the Spanish version is currently being translated. These brochures are
primarily being used as an informational tool for prospective new members.
Judi Conrad offered to help distribute the Spanish language brochures as
soon as these are available.
Barry Munro moved, Judi Conrad seconded, and the membership approved the
committee’s report.
