I just got a copy of this from our Torrey Hawks President (
Thanks Brian!). Apparently, USHPA has sent this to all Chapter Presidents:
Quote:
Hello USHPA Chapter Presidents,
Happy holidays to you all.
The USHPA web site will be undergoing a major redesign and modernization effort in a few weeks. We want your input for the redesign. Because you are the conduit to your region, we thought you might be able to help solicit the creative input from our membership.
What functions, features, and abilities do you want to see from the USHPA web site? We have some ideas such as; site guides, chapter guides, forum links, weather links, how to videos, online flight school materials, etc. We need to support these suggestions with details- what sites? What videos? What are the URL’s? What weather links do you use? What other modern tools do you like to use for your flying needs/passion (hard to tell the difference sometimes)
Please post those suggestions under the topic item: USHPA Headquarters: What do you want from an USHPA website? Details Welcome? You can access the USHPA Facebook page by clicking this link:
USHPA Facebook PageI welcome you to forward a message to your local chapter mailing list or regional mailing list serves to request people, if interested in helping, to go to the USHPA Facebook page, read the comments provided, ‘like’ the features you would like to see, and provide your suggestions - this is an easy way for us to keep track of suggestions. If you are not a Facebook user, you may email me directly and I will incorporate into the pool of ideas. Please keep your suggestions constructive, positive, and applicable to the redesign of the web site - specifically what you would like to see available as a membership.
Your help as Chapter presidents and active USHPA members is greatly appreciated.
So USHPA is suddenly reaching out to incorporate Chapters into their national web site? And USHPA is suddenly going to incorporate videos, weather links, and on-line flight school materials into their national web site?
Hmmm... where have I heard of those ideas before?
Could it be ... the
US Hawks ?According to an old saying:
"Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery!!" 
As the
US Hawks grow, USHPA is starting to take notice. If the
US Hawks accomplishes nothing else, at least we're applying the pressure that's making USHPA more responsive to its members.
Thanks to all
US Hawks members for helping make this happen.
