RE: AMA Communications ??
Let me try to put this thread back on track. Here is an idea. Where is it wrong? Better yet, throw out your own idea.
Someone at AMA HQ must have a decent voice. This is to be an inexpensive production, not a high dollar effort. Equipped with a video camera, do a short interview with the main players at HQ, having them explain what they do, what the benefit to the member/club is. Show HQ, the Museum, and Muncie briefly and explain their function. Show the web site and explain its content. Explain how to contact those in the video. Do a short interview with each member of the EC to allow them to explain what committees they are on, and the process that is used in decision making. Have someone explain the darned insurance. Not to be political in nature at all. Something that could be redone each year. Nothing with a lot of money invested in it.
This could be put on tape, CD of DVD. Whatever is financially expedient. Copies to be sent to every member and a couple to clubs. When clubs meet with press, or local authorities, it would be something the club could give to them. It should be 1-1/2 hours in length. Something a member can watch on their TV when and where they want.
