in May of this year, before the convention. We will do the same before next year's convention. Our cost to do this was less than 44 cents per card -- the most time-consuming part of this task was compiling an EXCEL list of the "walk-ins", work that was completed by some of our wonderful Las Vegas members, including & especially Sheldon Smith. Most of the incorrect or incomplete addresses were eliminated through an earlier mailing & I believe that I had less than a dozen (out of over 600 sent out) returned to me.

And the walk-in traffic actually INCREASED a little this year...
