ASA email circulation lists

2008-04-30

Alberta Sailing Association wants to reduce the number of irrelevant and duplicate emails people are receiving. Three new circulation lists will go into effect end of day Friday May 9th 2008. People and organizations can subscribe to any or all as suites your needs. All email circulations will be sent by “Blind Copy” so nobody sees who is on the list and the list is not available outside of ASA business. Proposed circulation lists are,

1. Racing and Training circulations include information about upcoming races and training opportunities.
2. Instructors and Coaches circulations include information relevant to CYA schools, instructors, coaches and people looking at becoming certified.
3. Club and other organizations circulations include information relevant to the operation of sailing clubs and other sailing organizations in Alberta.
