Subject: [Nfbwv-talk] Announcing New Ways to Connect

Federationists,

 

I am pleased to announce a new feature involving our web server that I
have actually been meaning to implement for quite some time.  Though I
had a few technical glitches in the past, the new servers implemented by
Ed's long time good friend Dave Andrews has made this considerably
easier in a few technical respects.

 

In order to establish a better sense of oneness and corporate unity in
our communications, I am pleased to announce that some of us - namely
our chapters, divisions, and officers - now have email addresses under
the "nfbwv.org" domain.  This will ensure that, as names and faces
change over time, your contact means should not have to change with them
if you want to get a hold of a particular chapter.  It will also aid in
using this address as contact from the outside to contact your
chapter/division, and will also not necessitate that everyone display
their personal emails publicly (something not really recommended).  Also
if a chapter ever decides to employ social networking on its own (e.g.,
Facebook et. al.), this will facilitate that.

 

These addresses are, for now, set up to forward to a designated address
(usually a chapter/division president) that can change as necessary.  

 

The addresses are:

 

At Large - atlarge at nfbwv.org

Martinsburg - martinsburg at nfbwv.org

Harrison - harrison at nfbwv.org

Kanawha - kanawha at nfbwv.org

Huntington - huntington at nfbwv.org

Wheeling - wheeling at nfbwv.org (forwarding can start once I get a valid
email address from Bob or someone up there, currently I don't have one
listed)

 

NAPUB - wvnapub at nfbwv.org

WVABS -  wvabs at nfbwv.org

 

And, of course.

 

To contact Charlene:  president at nfbwv.org

 

This tends to follow the conventions and protocols that many affiliates
and the National Center employ.

 

All these addresses are currently on the website, so please feel free to
experiment and give these out as your chapter's contact.
