SAFE launches membership drive

By Janice Wood · March 3, 2010 ·

The Society of Aviation and Flight Educators (SAFE) has initiated an incentives-based membership drive where SAFE members are being tasked with recruiting new members. The goal of the Member-Get-a-Member campaign – dubbed The GAME PLAN – is to add 500 new members to the organization’s ranks before AirVenture in July, officials say.According to SAFE Chair Doug Stewart, “This is a highly ambitious and novel program for such a young organization. But member-centricity and member involvement are two of our founding precepts.”

GaMeIn addition to increasing the ranks of the organization, recruiters become eligible for prizes donated by several aviation sponsors:

  • The number one recruiter receives a Zulu ANR headset provided by Lightspeed Aviation;
  • The number two recruiter receives a Garmin Nuvi 765T Car GPS provided by Avionics Specialists LLC;
  • The number three recruiter receives The Ultimate FIRC Package consisting of: FAA-approved Online FIRC provided by Aviation Supplies & Academics (ASA); the book “Stall/Spin Awareness” provided by Master Instructor Rich Stowell; and the book “GPS and WAAS Instrument Flying Handbook” provided by Master Instructor Max Trescott.

In addition to the grand prizes, SAFE will also hold a random drawing for all GAME PLAN recruiters during its annual dinner-meeting scheduled in Oshkosh on Thursday, July 29.
