what do you have to do to open the dec newsletter. Why is this website so difficult to use?
Hi Gerald – what issue are you having? There is a download button, when clicked the file downloads and opens in your browser. I tested it this morning and it worked quickly and efficiently. You can then print or save the file to your desktop. Let us know and we will work to fix any issue. -Dan
I agree it is difficult to find the newsletters…where is the “download” button???
Point to “Library” on the top or side menu. Choose “Newsletters” from the drop-down.
So it comes up with a newsletter page, with no links to the newsletters..????
