NMO Slides
  • Current NMO Slidedeck is to be kept in Shared drives/Membership/New Member Orientation Slide Deck Files
  • Link on Member Only Content on web site has been updated to link to the slidedeck located at location noted above.

General Discussion and/or Suggestions
  • Sync of Wild Apricot, WaiverForever, and Slack.
    • How?
    • How Often?
  • Membership Committee doesn't have access to August to enroll new members or delete lapsed members.   
  • Wish List:  App Script to check if a minor and if not a minor, send Slack invite, auto-schedule NMO, and schedule volunteer hours.
    • There are two ways to send and get info from Wild Apricot.
  • Need to document who admins are for Wild Apricot, Slack, August, WaiverForever, Arlo and any other operational software or apps
  • Need to document what on-boarding process is and what off-boarding process is.
  • WaiverForever analysis done and reported to Board of Directors.  Awaiting their response.
  • New Members are not told within on-boarding process that they have to be logged in, in order to see NMO.  Why should we keep the NMO as invisible to people that are not yet logged in?  Why does it have to be 'member-only' content?   If we're worried about non-members signing up, change the registration form or charge non-members $1000 to attend?
