Please remember:

• Relevance: There are many subscribers, please send only SJCCC news with relevance to broad subset of people.
• Audience: Some members only read Chinese (e.g., seniors) some only read English (youth, Watermark YAG, and people whose computer that are not set up to read Chinese).
• Cadence (Frequency): Please avoid sending multiple emails on the same day, unless absolutely necessary
• Speed: We are set to send at a very slow rate to maximize delivery, currently, it takes about 1 hour to send to the entire list.
