Dear Officers, Directors and Vice Directors, I am pleased to inform you that, because of a very generous gift from Walton Stinson W0CP, ARRL now has a corporate membership in BoardSource. BoardSource is recognized as the preeminent source of information on nonprofit governance and leadership development. This is their specialty, and I am very grateful to Walton for providing ARRL with access to this resource. You will all shortly be receiving an invitation from BoardSource to activate your account. Please do not regard their email as spam. Once you register, you will have access to their extensive resource library. One of BoardSource's key resources is their Board Self-Assessment Survey. BoardSource will set up a survey for us. This will take about 1-2 weeks. Once the survey is up and running, you will have 2-3 weeks to complete it. BoardSource then needs another 1-2 weeks to analyze the data and provide a report. I hope to have this report to present to the Executive Committee on May 20. I believe that it will be very enlightening. 73, Howard, WB2ITX -- Howard E.
