Help enter memberships into the new database! 12/2

From: Caroline Rose
----------------------

So, we are currently building an All-Hoofer database of all memberships so that we have quick and easy access to membership information from individual emergency contacts to organization-wide statistics. This database will make a new website possible, including signup for trips, hopefully a calendar, etc. All current Hoofer memberships (from all 6 clubs) are in the database HOWEVER we have several years of previous memberships we would like to get into the database for statistics, so we can contact alumni, etc.

Many Hoofers have been working on membership entry, but the Outing Club has a LOT of members and many years of memberships to enter, so we would love even more help.
I am leading a trip into the Hoofer database to enter as many memberships as we can on Wednesday, December 2. I will be in the Hoofer Lounge at 5:30 pm on Wed, Dec. 2 (or elsewhere--I'll let you know-- if there's a meeting in there) with my laptop to enter memberships until I leave for climbing (7:30 if there's a second wave of climbers, 6:30 if not.) Everybody is encouraged to join me. The database is web-based, so bring a laptop with internet capability if you can, if not, we will find a Hoofer computer for you.

If you can drop by the main Hoofer office during some free time, Erin, the Hoofer intern, or Jim or Linda, the Hoofer advisors, can get you set up to enter memberships any time.

Email me if you're attending on Wednesday, but you're encouraged to show up even if you didn't let me know in advance.
Your help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Caroline
