Mailing Lists

The life blood of any club is enabling communication amongst its members. Web forums used to be popular but nowadays with so many demands for our attention, people cannot be bothered to check them daily for new posts. Facebook ia popular but a number of our members prefer not to use a corporate social media platform. A very old-school but efficient way of communication is a mailing list, which uses email, often abbreviated as listserv. Essentially if you email a given listserv, it will relay that email to every other member on the list. Typically emails from a mailing list will have some [prefix] which enables easy filtering in your favorite email app.

Currently the club maintains one mailing list for announcements. This list is one-way, from the directors to the members, and advertises trips and courses. You do not need to be a member to sign-up:

SIW Announce

At some point in the future we may establish open mailing lists for members to communication amongst themselves.
