President’s Message June 2026

How does the MCA advocate for you? To know, we have to ask. That’s the motive behind our annual Mantua Issues Survey, which we presented at our May Membership Meeting. You can download the slides from your membership account in the Archives section of the member dashboard.

Speaking of representing you, we are pleased to report that we have a new website at mantua.org! It has all of the features of the old site, plus a lot more, but we ask that you be patient with us while we make the transition. Over the next week or so, we’re focused on bug reports, populating events and news content, and helping folks get their passwords reset.

What makes the new site better for members? Greater privacy controls in the directory, easier document access, automatic renewal options for your membership, and fast, direct access to articles and event info. It also renders on mobile phones and tablets, which is a nice, albeit overdue, feature.

You can log into your new website account in three easy steps:

• Click the “Log In” button in the top right of the homepage at mantua.org

• Click “Lost Your Password”

• Use the email of your primary household member (generally the person who pays for the household membership), or your new user ID, firstname.lastname, click “Reset Password,” and follow the instructions in your email.

Please be patient with us during the transition, and be sure to reach out to Gerry Anderson at webmaster@mantua.org if you have any trouble. Thanks for being our neighbor!
