Hello friends and followers of the AHA forum. I want to share important and historic news direct with you as homebrewers and part of the AHA community.
If you have opted to receive AHA email then you just received an announcement on AHA filing for incorporation in the state of Colorado as a step to become an independent nonprofit. Wow and exciting.
For deeper background on this move please see this news post.
Cheers to you each, cheers to homebrewing, and cheers to the AHA as the world’s leading homebrewing organization and its bright new future with members leading and driving what we do.
Woo-hoo! This is awesome news…I’m cautiously optimistic, and wish all the best to those at the helm during what will be a ton of work. I look forward to filling out the feedback form!
Given how opinionated homebrewers are, I think it is very brave to open up suggestions for the vision statement and such, but I love seeing the opportunity to participate! I know you all will do a great job on sorting through things.
Thanks to you Doug for leading the AHA still to this day and being Chair of the Events & Education subcommittee and helping bring us fresh Zymurgy Live educational webinars througout the year. Boss and exclusive content not to miss.
Hats off and steins up to everyone involved in this initiative. I am sure it took many many many hours of ideation, conversation, debate, effort, unforeseen challenges, etc. and that the typical member will never know the half of it. How exciting for this Board to be able to have “transformational change” as its legacy.
#NailedIt. And this is just the beginning as the AHA’s story is still unfolding. Any membership org has sucession, legacy and generational impact from those in the collective who show up.
Thank you all for the comments here. I am personally energized for the challenge and even more excited for you the membership on what we can do to better serve our community. We have great people who do great things. Like Julia said, this is just a beginning and the next chapter yet to be written - we as members are the authors.
I just tried to rejoin and my computer (Chrome) locked up twice at the processing payment step. First time having an issue like this on my my almost new laptop. Anyone else having problems?
If you’re still having issues with the process, email our membership team (info@brewersassociation.org) and they can assist you in getting this resolved.
