Membership
Renewal is Happening Now!
What
a year it’s been! If
you’ve followed the Greenfield elections, you’ll note that all
but one of CPR’s endorsed candidates won, causing the Town Council
to flip to the progressive side!
We
are clearly alive and kicking and
now is the time to renew your FCCPR membership for 2018. Dues
remain at $10/year (more if you can afford it, less if $10 is a
burden).
To
renew your membership for 2018, either
bring a check or cash to the next General Assembly meeting on Dec. 3,
send a check made out to FCCPR to:
P.O.
Box 216, Greenfield, MA 01302, or pay your dues on line
at https://fccpr.us/contact/.
Once
you’ve done that, please forward this message to 3 of your friends
with a note encouraging them to join FCCPR as well!

Proposed
FCCPR By-laws
For
some time the coordinating committee has been working on what we hope
is a simple set of by-laws for our organization.
Please
take some time to read them so we can discuss them and possibly vote
on them at the General Assembly.
Here is the link to the
proposed by-laws. Bylaws
