We've been doing this also Bill, ever since I took over the Golden Gate 
Chapter. We always start off with a short blurb on what's happening at HQ 
and in the Association in general. In addition, although all of the members 
SHOULD be getting the surveys, announcements, etc. I always try and forward 
them on to the Chapter members just to make sure they're aware and encourage 
participation in surveys and elections.
