Dear NOMMA Member,

Thanks for your membership! Please note that your membership expired on December 31. My hope is that you will remain a part of the NOMMA family.

During 2011 we made great accomplishments, and we have even bigger plans for 2012. Thanks to your membership:

• Our Technical Affairs team continues to stay active with the International Code Council (ICC). We currently have representatives on the ICC's Code Technology Committee Climbable Guard Study Group.

• Our Technical Affairs team also remains a part of the Vehicular Gate Ad Hoc Coalition, which is working on their latest project — a gate operator systems designer certification program.

• Our online video streaming has been a hit, and we've just passed the 1,000 view mark. Both NOMMA and NEF will continue to add education videos, tutorials, webinars, and podcasts to our online content library.

For 2012, our plans include:

• Participation in the ICC spring board meeting in Dallas in May.

• Continued education outreach through webinars, phone conferences, NEF workshops, and online resources.

• The launching of the Pacific Northwest Chapter, which will become our sixth chapter.

• In conjunction with the Northeast Chapter we plan to provide an education module for New York-New Jersey area architects in April. The hope is that this pilot program will become a nationwide model.

Both the NOMMA Education Foundation (NEF) and NOMMA have other programs in store as well.

Please consider renewing today. Note that we are now offering a four-payment installment plan. If you have any questions, always feel free to call me.

Again, thank you very much for your membership support.

Sincerely,

Todd Daniel
NOMMA Executive Director
