Navigating CARP’s E-Newsletter World

 

Did you know you have access to many informative e-newsletters when you are a member of CARP? And it is up to you to select the ones you find of interest or useful?

 

These newsletters keep you up to date on various topics –  everything from travel to finances to health and beyond. 

 

Just because you are a CARP member or are already receiving emails from us does not necessarily mean you have an online profile. You must create one. 

 

It’s simple to do:

1. Go to my.carp.ca
2. Click on blue words Register Here
You can then follow the prompts to create the account. Not sure if you have created a profile? Simply log in to see if there is a notification that this email is not associated with an account. That’s how you know you have not created your online profile.

 

The following is a list of the e-newsletters available to you:

CARP Advocacy (CARP Action)

CARP Health

CARP Lifestyle

CARP Savings

CARP Promotions

CARP Travel  

ZoomerMag Nostalgia

ZED: The Zoomer Book Club

Zoomer Wellness

Zoomer Living

The Zoomerist

Zoomer Money

Zoomer Promotions

Zoomer Travel

MAPPED

Zoomer Weekend

Zone: The Zoomer Classifieds

 

The titles are generally self-explanatory. The one that I think requires a little explanation is entitled MAPPED, which is a monthly travel newsletter.

 

You may already be receiving some of these e-newsletters. Why not try them all? You can always unsubscribe. I prefer newsletters as they are not as overwhelming to read as a full newspaper or magazine. I can always explore further if the topic is of particular interest to me.

 

Use these links to manage your subscriptions for CARP e-newsletters or Zoomer e-newsletters. Or you can go to the bottom of any email you receive from us and click on the prompt to update your preferences.

 

You may be pleasantly surprised at the information you’ll receive. Stay Informed. And did I mention? All are complimentary with your CARP Membership.
