LIFE TRAVELS SURVEY REMINDER
Nine days or so ago, we sent you a Travel Survey to find out what sort of travel you’re interested in. Many thanks to the 150+ of you who have already completed it for us. Now we want to wrap it up, so that we can learn from the results. Just in case you haven’t already completed the survey, we’re giving you a couple more days to give us your ideas and opinions. You have until the end of the day on Wednesday. (Deadlines, deadlines!)
So, please give us your input. Just click on the web address below. It will take you to a secure site, where you can tell us anonymously what you want. It will take you approximately 15 to 20 minutes to complete (a little longer if you write a lot!).
Here’s the address:
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/lifetravels1
Please note that if you have already completed the survey, it has a security system that won’t let you do it again – at least, not from the same computer!
If you have any problems with the survey, contact me (NOT the LIFE office).
Phone 416-489-1727 or email smnprsn@yahoo.com
Thanks for your help. It’s much appreciated.

LIFE TRAVELS SURVEY
Two out of three in the first year is pretty good, but we want to do even better in 2011/2012. So we’ve created a Travel Survey to find out what sort of travel you’re interested in, and we want you (and as many other LIFE members as possible) to complete it for us. It will take you approximately 15 to 20 minutes to complete (a little longer if you write a lot!).
So, please give us your input. Just click on the web address below. It will take you to a secure site, where you can tell us anonymously what you want.
Here’s the address:
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/lifetravels1
If you’re like me, you tend to say: “Oh, I’ll get around to it sometime soon.” But usually that means not getting round to it until it’s too late! We’re starting our planning for 2011/2012 this month, and we’d love you to complete the survey as soon as you can. How about right now? Or at least within the next few days.
If you have any problems with the survey, contact me (NOT the LIFE office).
Phone 416-489-1727 or email smnprsn@yahoo.com
Thanks for your help. It’s much appreciated.
