D5500 DACdb Study Update

The D5500 DACdb Task Force, composed of 23 club and district members and officers with various backgrounds, have been comparing ClubRunner and DACdb funtionality and costs to determine the advisabilty (or inadvisability!) of moving from ClubRunner to DACdb, at least at the district level (clubs will have the option). 

We expect to make our recommendation to District leadership in the next week or so, but are still open to inputs from any club or member.  Send to Leo@Lawrenson.com, the Task Force Chair, or any member of the Task Force or DG line.  Thanks!
