MEMBERSHIP DIRECTORY MAILED TO ULLRS
Fifteen ULLRs gathered at the home of ULLR Jan B., on December 11 to
prepare the November 2023 ULLR Membership Directory for mailing. The
group enjoyed lunch together. Host Jan B. provided beverages and a
delicious Cavatini hotdish, which was perfect for this early-winter
time of the year. ULLR participants brought appetizers, salads and
desserts to share.
Folding Party Coordinator Nancy S. organized everyone to prepare 135
directories for mailing: attach mailing labels, attach stamps, fold the
directories, and tape the directories The work crews were efficient and
quickly completed all the tasks.
Like any ULLR gathering, conversation flowed. Three of the participants
(Lori W., Lana D., and Joan H.) had not previously attended a
Membership Directory Folding Party, so those who had been in the ULLR
Club in its early years shared stories of the process for getting the
directories ready to mail to 1,000+ members. They also talked about
what the early directories looked like when documents like that were
produced using typewriters. Everything had to be re-typed when it was
time to update the directory. Today’s computers allow us to simply
insert or delete information from our database.
With the holidays and the new year approaching, conversations also
flowed regarding people’s plans for the holidays and winter travel. Our
wishes for each other included happy holidays and safe travels.
