Fall Conference - "LRID Homecoming" Sept. 17-19 - Lafayette

Call for Nominations

Hello LRID member,

First, let me say THANK YOU for your support of LRID for the past year. We increased our membership to 156 members, which to the best of my knowledge, is a record number!

It is that time of year again, as our fiscal/membership year ends today. Please take a moment to print the attached membership form, fill it out and return it as soon as possible. Your continued support is what has made LRID more successful than ever! (If you have already renewed your membership, please disregard.)

Also, it is election year again. Time to elect officers for the 2009-2011 term. You will find a letter attached containing more information for nominations and the election process. Although you have heard it before, LRID truly is a member-driven organization. If you have never ran for office in the past, won't you consider getting involved? If you are a past officer, consider talking the helm once more.

Please help keep LRID strong by renewing your membership, and also by nominating any members you feel would provide good leadership to our organization. Let's keep the momentum going and make LRID even greater in the upcoming years!

Also, both forms are available on our website www.lrid.org

Thank you once more for staying involved!

The new Membership form is available 09-10.
