From Membership Development

Are you a member of the CGW, Inc.? If you've sent in your membership more than 6 weeks ago, but have not received a receipt or an issue of Squeals, please contact our Treasurer right away.

If you are a Member of the CGW, you have probably received a “Welcome Packet” from the CGW. I hope you have found it to your liking, and that you will  find it useful in some way.  If you have feedback, comments, or suggestions for future versions of the packet, please contact me at the email address below.

I hope no long-time Members find offense in being addressed as though they were new to the guild. Sometimes the “new” in “New Member Packet” will refer to the Member, and sometimes it will refer to the packet! You decide which one applies to you, and accept a personal welcome from me either way! 

In the Welcome Packet I refer to our Member Directory, (FAQ page) but none was enclosed. The Board decided against including it since an update is possibly imminent. I removed the reference from the first page, but apparently forgot to remove it from the FAQs page. My apologies for the error and any resulting confusion.

Members who do not have a copy of the current Member Directory and would like one can contact me with your mailing address and I will have one sent to you.
