<p class="MsoNormal">Hello all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are currently in the throes of finalizing exhibit content for our new integrated library and museum/archives facility slated for opening in October 2017 here in Trail. As we move into a New Year, the board is beginning to address organizational
issues that will arise as we move into a new space, gain a much broader exposure in the community, and naturally evolve as an organization.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This integrated concept has eliminated the possibility (from a logistical perspective) of charging admission, something our City Council has fully endorsed. As the Trail Historical Society has always offered a membership package, with
free museum entry as the primary “perk”, I’m wondering if anyone is willing to share their membership packages with me if they do not charge admission. What sorts of incentives do you offer? Do you have levels of membership?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any feedback would be greatly appreciated! Please feel free to contact me directly.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks in advance!<o:p></o:p></p>
