CDSOA Members:

The Mar/Apr issue of Masthead is under construction, and we are already anticipating the next issue! Please continue to submit articles for publication. One lucky member (to be announced) already won the foredeck awning giveaway. Perhaps we can scrounge up some other items.

Email your articles to: cdmasthead at gmail dot com.

Thanks!

May/June

Post by David van den Burgh »

We're putting the finishing touches on the Mar/Apr issue of Masthead, which means we'll be ready to start the May/June issue soon.

Be sure to document trips, rendezvous, gatherings, projects, and any other good stuff so we can get plenty of interesting content lined up.

Email submissions for consideration to cdmasthead at gmail dot com.

Thanks for your support!

Has any thought been given to publishing the Masthead quarterly rather than six times a year? It might help alleviate some of the recent problems in getting articles. I'd be OK with 4 issues a year.

Joe, we wouldn't mind but that's a decision the membership needs to make. Why not email your suggestion to the commodore?

I think Joe's idea is a good one

As a former editor, who found himself swamped at deadline time and sometimes struggling to fill issues, I think Joe's idea is a good one.

Are you watching this, Bill?

Would that mean a reduction in pay?! I'm already feeling like the $1000/issue is a bit meager.

Is that all they're paying you!

You should have checked with me first ... uh-oh, the secret's out.
