Good afternoon NEOA Board, Happy Wednesday, I hope everyone is doing well. As you know, one of my top priorities for next year is membership. I am interested in looking closely at how we can increase our membership while also retaining the current members that we do have, both on and off the board. As current board members, I would love to know if you have an interest in staying on the board for next year and if so, in what capacity. If you haven't had the chance to complete the interest form, please find the link here: NEOA Interest Form <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd9iEsmmSmtGzYCnza0T4nm0t4S_OTkeaW6Zdc9GtEMTR2Q7A/viewform?usp=sharing> If you have any questions or feedback, please do not hesitate to reach out.
