Subject: Corvallis British Car Club - Updated Group Listing and ...
All:
I’ve attached an updated list of people associated with our group. I’ve also made sure everyone on the list is included in the email. Which brings up a little business I think we need to attend to.
I know, we’re supposed to be a (dis)organization built on the foundation that we don’t have officers, meeting agendas or dues. This works well most of the time, but as we’re starting to attract a larger cast of characters, keeping everyone informed is becoming a little more difficult.
An Order of Business:
When each of us sends out email, it seems we’re not always including everyone. This happens to me also. Just look at the list of names above. It’s not easy making sure you have everyone that’s on the Word document I maintain (attached). And sometimes were including people who have asked to be removed from our list.
A few months ago, Tim Holt set us up with a group page on Google so we can maintain a membership listing in one place. He did it in such a way that he mitigates members from getting spammed through this web site. To date, a little over 20 of us have signed up.
It would be great if we could get everyone to sign up. This way, we no longer need to double check our email to make sure we have everyone included. By using the Google group, we simply send our email to corvallis-bri...@googlegroups.com. Everyone that is signed up gets the email. And if people decide they want off the list, they simply remove their name.
The way it is now, unless we make sure to remove people from our email messages, they continue to get emails. Daniel Couch asked to be removed about a year ago, but periodically he still gets emails.
So, please sign up for the Google group. It’s easy. Here are the steps to follow:
1. Pull up your web browser and enter this web address:
2. http://groups.google.com/group/corvallis-british-car-club
3. Look on the right side of the web page. Click on “Apply for group membership”
4. When you submit your information you do not immediately become a member. Tim Holt will need to approve you. He set it up this way to keep spammers from getting our email addresses.
5. Once you have registered, each time you come to the CBCC web-page, you’ll need to sign. To “Sign In”, follow these steps:
a. In the top right corner of the web-page is a link that says “Sign In”
b. Click on this
c. Enter your email address and password
d. Click the “Sign In” button
e. You should be in
Now to email the group, all you need to do is send your email to: corvallis-bri...@googlegroups.com
Everyone that has signed up will get your email. It is a lot easier to send emails by just emailing the group than trying to make sure you have all the individual names correct.
Note: I’m sending this message to the Google group as well as to the individual list I have. If you don’t receive two emails on this subject from me, either I didn’t get your email address correct, or you’re not signed up for the Google group.
Business Adjourned.

It looks like those of us signed up to the Google Group got the test email. The only difference I can see between yesterday and today is that yesterday the Google Group was sent as a “CC”.
Thanks to all of you who let me know.

Thanks, Marc. Hope you’re doing well. Think you’ll be at next Friday’s (25th) lunch?
Mike
Planning on it.
So you won’t be AWOL this month?
AND – will the weather dudes give us Brit-Car-Friendly skies?

Say hi to Janet and the kids for me
