Welcome to the Running Extra Survey!

The Society created Running Extra to take administrative news out of The Warbonnet, saving more expensive printed material.  The Running Extra has promoted transparency by providing Minutes of the Annual Meeting; excerpts of Board meetings; financial reports; donor lists; and announcements.  Over time, the Running Extra has grown to include stories about the Santa Fe.   Other features have included the Santa Fe Challenge; Swap Meet; Questions and Answers; and Contest Winners.

While Running Extra is edited by a volunteer, its printing costs have grown to about $3600/year and the amount of mail the editor receives has diminished.  The Board is seeking input from members on whether the Running Extra should be eliminated; retained; or transformed in some way.  Please share your thoughts.

Question Title

* 1. Please rank your preference among the following options for the future of the Running Extra.  There are three basic options:

1.  Keep Running Extra "as is" at 8 pages, mostly Society news, short articles - this may result in higher dues over time. 
2. Keep Running Extra "as is" but deliver it digitally - we would need member emails and permission to send.
3. Make Running Extra digital and use expanded space in digital format for additional Society member-generated content - requires more member and volunteer time
4. Eliminate Running Extra
