Subject: A Reminder for all LAB members

Just a reminder to all current members of the League of American
Bicyclists that the deadline for posting your ballots in the current board
of directors election is April 15th (this coming Saturday). 

Regardless of who you vote for (only one seat is contested), it is
important that you cast your ballot. Sending in your ballot will tell
staff, board, and all of the rest of us that you are concerned and
interested in what happens to the League and course it sets for the
future. Voter apathy will only hurt the future of LAB. 

I'm sure that we have already far surpassed the turnout of the last
election, but every ballot will semd a message.

Your ballot can be found on page 4 of your "2000 Almanac, Tourfinder &
Ride Guide," (Vol. 36, No. 2 of Bicycle USA). Your membership number is on
your mailing label just above your name (and on your membership card). 

If you did not receive a copy of the Almanac or cannot locate yours,
contact another League member and see if they still have their Almanac
intact (most of us photocopied the ballot rather than tear up our Almanac).
Get them to fax you a copy. Maybe someone on this list will help you.

I would fax you a copy except that I am on the ballot.  However, as a
concerned member of LAB, I am not uncomfortable asking you to please cast a
ballot in this election. There is a membership and it should be counted.

Mail them by Friday to guarantee a postmark of no later than Saturday.

Thanks,
