2011 Survey

We need your input – fill out the survey for a chance to WIN!

While membership of our Society has been steady over the past few years, a vital and active organisation relies on maintaining membership and recruitment of new members.  To improve our services to members and increase new membership, we need to hear from you.

We ask that you complete the attached survey in order to gain feedback on your perceptions of our organisation and your ideas and suggestions on where we could make improvements.

Your input to the Society is very valuable and important to us, but all information you provide in the survey is confidential.

Completed surveys received before 1st July 2011 will go into the draw for a free conference registration or free membership for a year.

Website Upgrade

You will have noticed some changes to the website as we go about upgrading and improving the site for members and visitors.   Some of the changes already implemented are cosmetic only while other ideas are more substantial and require some strategic planning by the committee.

So we’re looking for feedback from members as to how the website can be improved and what kind of information/features you are looking for here.  There is a comments form/button below so please feel free to contribute your ideas here or email them direct to admin@grasslandnsw.com.au

Basically we’re looking for the Grassland NSW website to:

  • have a fresh and modern look
  • provide services to Society members (membership/conference information, etc)
  • publish relevant information on grassland/pasture management
  • publicise upcoming events

We welcome your ideas on how to best achieve these objectives so look forward to hearing your comments.

News

Since we had such a catastrophic website crash, I decided to take the opportunity to totally move over to the WordPress platform for the Grasslands website.  This has a number of advantages, not least being removing the confusion over what information is on the original part of the website and what is on the new blog part.

This new system will allow committee members to post messages and keep all information in one central place.  Most of the archived information has been backed up and will be restored over the next day or so and newsletters and conference proceedings will be available from then.

I apologise for this problem – we had some server problems which caused a larger crash than we had planned for.  However, since it has prompted me to tidy up some of the old loose end, I guess we can call it a blessing in disguise.  Thank you for your patience in this matter.

cheers Leah Lane (web admin).
