Audience
The current mailing list is 2020. In years past, I had a mailing list for each year and rolled those who renewed into the next years list and starting using that list in March. Since then, MailChimp started charging an extra monthly charge for more than one list, so I created a segment in this case, 2021. Those new members and those who renewed their membership were added to the 2021 segment.

Click on audience and the list will come up. You can query by First, Last, etc. You will see that some are already in the 2021 segment. It is easy to select a current member and add them to the 2021 segment when they renew. Then, when we start using that list next March, You will select to send to the 2021 segment.
When I composed and email, I normally used font size 24.
