After launching the first issue of our electronic newsletter, we learned that the name we had chosen, Newf e-News, was already being used by the Newfoundland Club of New England for their electronic newsletter. To avoid confusion between the two, we've agreed to change our name. But to what??? The NCA Board tossed around some ideas, but in the end, we decided to leave it up to you with a "Name the Newsletter" Contest.
NCA members can submit ideas for names for this newsletter any time between now and January 15. At the Board teleconference on January 17, the winner will be chosen, and that name will be used beginning with the January issue.
The person submitting the winning entry will get a short article and photo in NewfTide as well as a small token of the Board's appreciation to be awarded at the Annual Meeting of the Membership at the National Specialty.
So, put on your creativity hat and come up with a great name for this electronic newsletter. NCA members only, please, should email their entries to the
NCA Board for receipt no later than 1/15/08. If you have any questions about the contest, contact
Mary Lou Roberts.
