| ITEMS OF INTEREST
A. CHANGE OF ADDRESS
Send John Pierce change of an address - we are losing more than fifty people each year. We publish and mail out the Chatter to incorrect addresses because we are not notified of Change of Address which is too expensive. Your help is needed to keep our mailing lists current.
Please send John Pierce new addresses and E-mail addresses.
If you should move your residence, please notify us in the future.
B. CHATTER NEWSLETTER
We took a lot of extra effort to locate crew members, plus printed and mailed 700 newsletters, but to reduce printing cost and postage we will only send the Chatter to those expressing an interest. From now on, we will send the Chatter Newsletter to those responding to the postcard inquiry to be sent late 2009 regarding the 2010 reunion. During the past several years, approximately 200 people have responded to the mail out postcard announcement requesting information on the next reunion. We will gather names, addresses and new telephone area codes of former crew members before we send out future Sylvania Chatter Newsletters to them.
