One of the goals of the Board of Directors is to better serve our members' needs. To this end, we have created this questionnaire to gather your opinions and suggestions about our Chapter. There are two sections. Part one is background information that will be used to make a demographic model of our group. Part two is more subjective with questions pertaining to your personal interests and concerns. I will collect the information and then publish the findings in this column. You may also include comments about any topic and you do not have to sign the form. Since this is only being published in The Herald, only members will be able to participate. Please, take a few minutes and fill out this form. This is your opportunity to effect the course of HMGS-GL.
