I understand that the printed magazines are very nice but very costly. The club spends $40-50K per year just on magazine printing and advertising to offset the cost of the magazines has dropped a lot in recent years. In years past the board discussed this topic and and one problem was that there were quite a few older members who just did not use the internet so could not access an online magazine. I don't think that is probably the case today. The added problem of offering both (online and print version) is that the printing setup cost is most of the annual cost so there is little benefit in having to print fewer magazines. I really have no opinion either way just presenting facts from when I was treasurer.
