Promotion of the Forestry Management board

I recieved this from a friend in relation to the new "Forestry Management" board.

Thanks very much "dadpad",

The Bulletin board looks like a fun location to get farm forestry information. It's nice to see it amongst the end users of the wood products industry as well.

I noticed the question on the Bulletin board regarding the growing of a small block of timber in East Victoria. I'm sure many of our Victorian members would be keen to participate in this type of discussion and information sharing. I personally have a broad farm forestry knowledge, without being an expert in any one topic or region.

From here at the national office, we are certainly happy to promote the Bulletin board through our Branch Communiqué. We have 24 Branches around Australia, with all our members receiving a regular Branch Communiqué.

If it's possible, could you organise a short promotional paragraph to be prepared, so we can include it in our Branch Communiqué's? We will also look at ways to promote the Bulletin board through other avenues.

I personally will also endeavour to regularly look at and contribute to the Bulletin board.

Kind regards,

I have modified the above by deleting some unnecessary information.
I'm hoping the this boards owners/admins may have some input into "a short promotional parragraph"
I envisage this parra encompasing what the board is about as a whole as well specific reference to the timber and forestry management boards and how to register and participate especially for those who may have never used a bulletin board before.

The Woodworking Australia, Woodwork Forums were set up so kindred spirits could exchange ideas and information amongst their fellow timber enthusiasts.

The forums cater for all avenues of woodworking from wood turning to fine cabinetry.
One of the latest forums is for the exchange of ideas in the Timber Management area.

Registration is a must if you wish to post in the forum, but the registration is a very simple process.

Participation from the members is what makes the forums what they are, everyone is encouraged to participate, and indeed they do.

The forums run in real time, so you may expect to get a quick response to your question, sometimes almost immediately.

WOODWORK FORUMS
have enabled a Forestry Management internet forum where growers and managers of timber plantations can exchange ideas, learn new stuff, ask questions and get information on a huge range of subjects. What to grow in what location, what’s working in your area and what others are doing in other areas.
In addition you have the opportunity to reach an amazing variety of people involved in the wood industry; processors, wholesalers, retailers, end users, craft industry and tradesmen.
Post articles and/or pictures of interest, show off your trees, your latest wood turning or cabinetry or just enjoy the camaraderie in the "Nothing about woodwork" thread.
Here’s an example of some what’s on the forestry management forum at present.

What to plant?........

Suggestions for non native timber plantation........

Victorian Timber Undervalued.....

Question regarding salt tolerance of commercially important timbers...

Walnut trees for timber........

Where will wood come from in the future.........

I would delete the condescending GIRLS thing altogether.

It is so yesterday to talk about females in that way, and you will lose a good part of your audience, males included.

Done OZ thanks for the feed back.

Keeping in mind a camel is horse designed by a committee are there any other comments. from admin or memebers?

Just one - run the formal statement through a spell checker. Funny thing is, even the bb tells you if something is spelt wrong - probably good to take note of when it points out an error.

camaradery
whats (punctuation)
procesors


And so on.

Dadpad,
might be an idea to put "bullets" in front of each of your six points or maybe italicise them (or both).
