Chapter Roundup Thank You for Participating in the 2025 Member Value Survey 

By: CSMFO Membership Committee 

We are grateful to the 150 members who took the time to share their thoughts and insights through the 2025 CSMFO Member Value Survey. With a response rate of 6%, we surpassed the industry average at 3-5% and gathered valuable feedback that will guide us in strengthening the value of your membership.

The survey provided invaluable feedback on areas of satisfaction & engagement, popular benefits, participation and areas you would like to see more of! The overall satisfaction response with CSMFO is overwhelmingly positive, with 85.34% reporting they are “satisfied” or “very satisfied. Your feedback will be reviewed to identify areas for improvement and ways CSMFO can develop upon.

As a thank you for completing the survey, all respondents had the opportunity to enter a drawing for one of five $40 gift cards. We're excited to announce the winners:

• Kimberly Bunn, Mono County

• Melanie Purcell, TAM

• Lulu Medel, City of Santa Ana

• Noel Parkhurst, Greater Vallejo Recreation District

• Helen Wu, City of Union City

Congratulations to our winners!

Winners have been contacted directly. As the Board provides direction from the survey takeaways, the Membership Committee look forward to share updates. Thank you again to all for your thoughtful input — your voice helps shape the future of CSMFO!!!!
