Hello, COS members,
The designer of the Chicago Ornithological Society's newsletter, Louise
Molnar, finished the September newsletter (which looks great), but her computer
melted down just as she was saving a PDF version for print. We can't open the
file for printing and poor Louise is having to rebuild her hard drive AND
rebuild the newsletter. So members who receive the print version will have to
wait a bit longer while she finishes the process and we get it to and back from
the printer.
Luckily, Louise's machine was obedient enough to correctly save the email
version and that should be coming to you ASAP.
The moral of the story? If you CAN receive The Chicago Birder, but don't,
NOW is a great time to change your subscription from print to email. Besides
totally avoiding the delay of printing and regular mailing, the email version
of The Birder comes in FULL COLOR, so you'll get the advantage of seeing great
color photos from many of the Chicago area's best bird photographers, as
well as pictures from COS events.
In the meantime, you can get information about COS field trips and
activities at our web site: _www.chicagobirder.org_ (http://www.chicagobirder.org)
To temporarily change your COS newsletter subscription to EMAIL from print
FOR JUST THE SEPT./OCT. ISSUE, please contact the COS Email Manager, Steve
Phillips at _savebirds@email.com_ (mailto:savebirds@email.com) .
To PERMANENTLY change your COS newsletter subscription to EMAIL, please
contact the COS Membership Chair, Jane Pedersen, at _JaneLCSW@aol.com_
(mailto:JaneLCSW@aol.com) .
If you AREN'T a COS member and would like to receive our newsletter and
other member benefits, check out the web site at _www.chicagobirder.org_
(http://www.chicagobirder.org) for more information and a membership application.
Thanks and very sorry for the inconvenience. Technology is not our friend
this week.
