Notes:

  • Constant Contact does not allow attachments on emails to prevent viruses from being transmitted. If you need to send an attachment, transmit it to the webmaster for upload to the Troop 890 website. The webmaster will give you a url link that you can put in your email.
  • Do not copy a Microsoft Word or other formatted document into the email. All paragraph and tab settings will be lost.
  • If you want to set up an email list for a small group, e.g., Trek or first year group, email the webmaster to learn how to create a special interest group.
