Overview of Chapter Channels
Website & e-shot
Website
The ‘Golden Source’ for Chapter information and is maintained by the Chapter Webmaster. We work very hard to make the information found here accurate and up to date. If there are differences between the website and other Chapter channels such as member posts to our Facebook page, it’s the website that has the right end of the stick!
There is a public facing part of the website which anyone can access and a private facing part of the website which is for Chapter members only and accessed via the [SIGN IN] button.
The website has a variety of information about the Chapter covering such things as:
- how the Chapter is run
- the people involved in running the Chapter
- the history of the Chapter
- the activities undertaken by the Chapter
- how to join
The website contains news relevant to the Chapter and its members, news from the dealership and an archive of old Newsletters dating back to the early days of the Chapter. It also contains Notices where previous issues have been discussed and a Chapter position has been determined.
There are also links to other Chapters and organisations which may be of interest to Chapter members.
Please take time to explore the website and send any comments or suggestions you may have through to the Chapter Webmaster who maintains the website.
