Year over year membership comparison

[mdatcher]

One question the board of my organization asks is "How do this year's memberships compare to last years?" We have annual memberships starting in September. Obviously, it is easy to see the New, Current, or Grace members based on searches. However, is it possible to figure out how many members there were on a specific date in the past?

For example, at the board meetings, the group would like to hear "Today, we have X members in good standing. On this date last year, we had Y members."

Thanks for your help.
