Title: Is there a way to discontinue the mailed copy of the Volunteer?
Post by: Eclipse on September 27, 2011, 11:34:41 PM
If not, there should be.  By the time I get it in the mail, I've already read it twice.

Yes, go into e-services.

Click "Review/Change My Information"

Small check box that says "Opt out of receiving Volunteer Now"

I'd suggest continuing to get the magazine.  Collect old copies from all your members and than do some drops around the area such as doctors offices, etc, with your unit name & contact information on the back cover.

You can order them.  A whole case even, for just this type of thing.

Few people read, or even bother looking at, the magazines at medical office, or anywhere else any more.  Everyone is on their phone.

Where? It's not in the CAP Materials module of eServices.

That's a good idea, and I'd like to start.

Eclipse, you're right, but it couldn't hurt.

I don't have access to the supply order module, but there used to be an option there.  If they took it out, I'd send an email to PA at NHQ and see how the method changed.
