Important News About RSCC Electronic Mailings

Many of our members have been receiving our electronic updates about the activities of the Rockville Sister City Corporation.  This helps us stay in touch with our members and keeps you current on activities.  We are attempting to convert this to a more efficient system using a Usenet Group, very similar to a listerve.  This allows the person who manages the group to send messages easily to the entire group using one e-mail address.  Our group is managed through Google Groups under the name of ‘rsccelectronic’.

There is an easy solution, however.  Go to http://groups.google.com/group/rsccelectronic and ask to join the group.  (See instructions below.)  Google will then send the list owner an email requesting approval of your application. If, at any time you wish to unsubscribe or change your e-mail address, our e-mails will contain instructions on how to do this.  If you have questions about our usenet group or have any difficulty subscribing, please e-mail tefwright@gmail.com.
