New ! Membership Cards

Louise Phaneuf, President, announced a new membership card program at the President's cocktail on Sat. Nov 18, 2006. Each member family will receive an e-mail confirming their membership for the 2006-2007 season. Attached to this is e-mail is a PDF document that contains all of your family's membership cards. Just open this black only document in Adobe Acrobat Reader, print it out, and cut out your cards. If you lose your card(s), simply reprint them.

We have a number of discount programs with various merchants (see our new discounts page) and they were complaining that there was no way to tell who was a member in good standing for the current year. The new membership cards will solve this problem which was also irritating for the members because they couldn't easily prove their membership status.

With this change, YOU WILL NEED YOUR MEMBERSHIP CARD to obtain the Intershack discounts from our participating merchants.

If you do not have an e-mail address, call Louise at 802.988.2875 and we will mail you your cards.
