Conclusion
Form, format, makeup, layout, art work, and frequency of publication are all important
aspects of communicating with your chapter's members through regularly issued bulletins
and newsletters. Nothing, however, is more important than communication
itself. Naturally, it would be ideal if each one of our chapters was
able to print a regular, full color magazine of the same quality as the National
Society's S.A.R. Magazine. Such is not possible.
It is possible, however, to communicate. A letter or one sheet bulletin
photocopied on both sides is far, far better than no news at all. No
news is not good news. No news is just that - - nothing.
Communication is a vital key to every other aspect of the SAR and is absolutely
necessary if we are to reach the goals we have set for ourselves and live up to
the principles for which we stand.
