Hello All,

Figured this would be of interest to some.  Though I'm
sure some have already read it.

An announcement to our friends, members and supporters:

Anyone who has used e-mail knows the powerful impact it
has had on our society: it has revolutionized the way
we communicate and enabled us to become more effective
in our personal lives and professional realms.
Documents that once required proper postage and
packaging now are transmitted with the click of a
mouse.

E-mail and the World Wide Web are proving to be staples
of the future and already seem to be essential in most
of our daily lives. So here at the United States
Association of Blind Athletes, (USABA) we decided to
pull up a chair and embrace this effective form of
contact. We are proud to announce that we too have
modernized the way we conduct business, and have now
entered the digital age – the majority of our
announcements and notifications will be sent to you
online, and e-mail is our preferred vehicle of
communication.

We hope that you will enjoy the benefits of our new
online-conversion. Here is what you can expect from our
renovations. Your e-mails and notifications will now
include:

• Up-to-date results and highlights for your favorite
teams
• Sport-specific information based on your preferences
and interests
• Sports camp details, logistics and registration forms
• Athlete, coach and referee profiles of elite and
recreational players
• Fliers announcing special events tailored to your
location and interests

Here at USABA, we know that as an active member and
supporter, you anticipate hearing about our sports
programs and like to stay posted on our happenings –
whether on a local, national or international level.
Our athletic teams consist of talented athletes and
committed coaches – so we understand that you want to
view our team results and highlights as soon as they
become available. By utilizing the e-mail system as our
primary form of communication, we are able to
correspond with you more frequently and thoroughly. We
hope that you embrace our new efficient structure. You
now have the opportunity to take an insider’s look at
our organization and the ways that we serve you and the
blind and visually impaired community.

Thank you for your ongoing support as a valued member
of this team.


Michelle Ortlieb
Director of Communications
