Membership
This year our theme for membership was the North Dakota Great Buffalo Roundup for Membership.
We have struggled greatly with trying to get our units to 100% renewal. We do have 14 units at 100% or more, 34 in the 90% range, and 38 in the 80% range. Of those in the 80-90% range, 13 lack just 1 renewal, and 20 lack just 2 to 4 renewals. We are working to get those in to push their units to 100%. There are quite a few more that lack just 5 to 8 renewals. I know we can get our numbers up, but it is taking longer than I expected. We are making calls to the units, getting more of them on ALA MIS so that the process can be easier and faster, and working to get as close to 100% as possible.
We are excited by National’s new system of goal setting and are sure we can do a better job of getting our Membership up to 100% in 2025.
