The Tribal Elder speaks about keeping abreast of 21st century tools
Jack Paxton, aka the Tribal Elder
Marines
If you are a regular to this website, you have seen the tremendous changes made since we made our debut in early December. Fortunately for us, we have a very, very talented webmaster in former Marine and Life Member CC Kate Stark. She continues to pleasantly surprise us on a daily basis. [insert evil laugh from webmaster here]
On February 4 we launched PayPal services and the capability of using the site to pay for dues, sales, conference registrations, contributions, Merit Sponsorship payments and for Journal ads.
I want to assure you this is a necessary adjunct to doing Association and Foundation business; one that most successful organizations employ for their members. It is safe, secure and practical in the day-to-day operations of the USMCCCA.
A quote from one of our bankers at Coastal Bank and Trust of Florida: “Those members who are afraid of entrusting their credit card information to this format would willingly give up their cards to a restaurant server – certainly one of the most insecure of practices.”
I encourage you to use it.
Semper Fidelis
Jack T. Paxton
Executive Director
