Jay Bellows has kindly scanned the Strategic Plan that was adopted by the Board in January 2004. It is available to officers, directors and vice directors at <http://www.arrl.org/members-only/ODV/docs/Miscellaneous/THINKING%20PLA NNING%20STRATEGICALLY.pdf http://www.arrl.org/members-only/ODV/docs/Miscellaneous/THINKING%20PLAN NING%20STRATEGICALLY.pdf

I can't believe we didn't originally get a copy of the strategic plan in MS Word format. The PDF file is nice but hard to use if you want to do more than just read it. I scanned the PDF and OCR'd it into MS Word if anyone wants a copy (or to post in the ODV part of the web site).

Since that time, several strategies have been selected for implementation each year.

Thanks for sending the e-mail with the list.

However, the Strategic Plan itself has not been reviewed and updated. The time is approaching when it will be appropriate to do that.

I think that's an understatement. After re-reading the plan I don't think we've been very successful in implementing it. -- Tom ===== e-mail: k1ki@arrl.org ARRL New England Division Director <http://www.arrl.org/> http://www.arrl.org/ Tom Frenaye, K1KI, P O Box J, West Suffield CT 06093 Phone: 860-668-5444
