It is that time of year again – the Membership Renewal cycle. This year the Membership renewal timeframe is 1 May through 30 June. Dues will be considered late after 30 June. The application window for new members is also 1 May through 30 June.
The intent this year is to maximize the opportunity to process membership forms and dues payments electronically. To access the renewal forms, please go the webpage. Go to “Members” on the navigation bar. The first entry under “Members” are the forms for 2024-2025 renewals and new membership application. Please take advantage of the electronic renewal and payment system if practical. (There will also be paper forms available in the office for walk-ins.)
For your convenience a copy of the current Standing Rules is attached. Standing Rule 1 is Membership.
If you have any questions about renewing or submitting a new member application please contact the Membership Committee, Colonel Bill Loto wmdgl1@verizon.net, 813-622-5715.
