Still, I guess it must be said, if each member pays $160 or more, where does that money go? Is this an allocation/priorities issue? Given the number of members and the cost of the annual convocation, it would appear that there is positive cash flow. For any professional organization to survive, it has to stay meaningful, current and relevant. Being out there on the leading edge might be a draw to the younger crowd, too. What if some of the competitions were held online so all could see and judge? What if.

To replace it with a blog, or to add a blog, adds learning curve and a need for resources. A blog would be good, we need the Webmaster to have the time to work it in. Then, at some point, the Webmaster could find the time to switch over to a blog or decide to maintain both a Website and a blog. In any event, adding what is not already there is a request for more resources.
