introducing OPERATION SUNBIRD/SNOWBIRD, our Arizona statewide initiative to raise MOAA membership. Here’s how it works: for we Arizona SUNBIRDS who spend some of the warmer months away from Az, this is an opportunity to network and engage with other chapters. For the SNOWBIRDS who winter in Az, this is an excellent opportunity to bring more members into our chapters and engage with local Az events. This initiative was announced today at the MOAA Western Region Chapter Leaders workshop. A sample of the email introduction is included below. Comex OPERATION SUNBIRD/SNOWBIRD, and let’s build our MOAA membership!
