Membership Communication

Utilizing the power of MS Outlook an ISCN member dtatbase has been developed that will allow the executive board to communicate with members. In addition, ISCN would like to add new contacts to this list that may be interested in the functions of the organization. MS Outlook allows us to sort the listing and separate members vs. non-members and will also allow some biographical information to be compiled as it becomes available. If you are reading this blog and would ike to be added to the e-mail distributions, please send an e-mail to rsmith@citrustreesource.com and we will add you to our list. Include Name, Address, Phone numbers, Company name, web site, and any other information you would like to offer ISCN.
It has been a long time coming, but the new ISCN web site is again under construction. We don't have a completion date to offer up, yet, but Andrew Lee is committed to insure it gets done very soon.
Over the next few weeks, an effort will ensue to attain "Country Representatives" for ISCN. These are nurserymen from nations with citrus nurseries that speak English and are willing to disseminate ISCN information to citrus nurserymen in their countries and translated into their nation's language. In this era of e-mail and the internet, it should be easier for ISCN to serve a larger population of citrus nursery people, even if they can't attend a Congress. Establishing "Country Representatives" is an important step in this process. If you would like to volunteer to be a representative, please contact ISCN Secretary, Roger Smith at the above e-mail address.
