ELECTRONIC INFORMATION; REQUEST FOR PAPER OPTION
With this flyer, the SJCA Board of Governors gives notice that, due to rising costs and availability of information through electronic means, the SJCA will no longer routinely send paper mailings to inform or update households of SJCA meetings and activities. There are many alternative ways to stay informed:

  1. Sign up for the e-mail list and receive information directly in your inbox (Strongly encouraged!) Go to www.mysjca.org, then, ‘Subscribe to our email newsletter,’ enter your email address, and click ‘SUBMIT.’ Multiple e-mail addresses per household are permitted.
  2. Check the SJCA website (www.mysjca.org), the SJCA Facebook account (Saint John’s Community Association), and/or Nextdoor Dunloggin for news.
  3. Request paper/hard-copy information. The SJCA Board of Governors realizes that some people require paper/hard-copy information due to limited access to electronic information. If you are in that situation, you may request to receive paper/hard-copy information by completing the form below and checking the “I REQUIRE A PAPER COPY” box. If you request paper copies and are not yet a member please consider becoming a member to help offset printing and mailing costs.
