Project Description Notes Completed
Update Membership Forms Although we capture "year of birth" in freehub, this is not a piece of information requested on our membership forms. Our membership master form should probably be updated to ask for this, and anything else that freehub has space for but is not on the membership form. I think the master form is kept in a plastic protector in the desk in the office. I think the solution is as easy as updating the master form, and then the next time copies get made, they will reflect the updated field.
