Ruth.....We only have three classes of membership at this time. We cut
out the life memberships because we only had about twenty members that
were not life members and we were not able to make it with no dues
coming in. Now we have a single @ $15.00, family @ $20.00, and student
@ $2.00. After being a member of the state society and a couple of
county societies, I feel the dues are very reasonable and know that we
should raise them, but, in today's market, we would not have anyone join
if we raise prices. Our society is not well to do, and we are staying
close to the bone right now so we don't fall apart. Wish it was
better, but......... Mary Lee Klaus, Secretary, Adams County

Subject: membership dues
We are interested in knowing what your present membership dues are and
if you have more than one class of dues. Do you have a lifetime
membership class?? We are contemplating a proposed increase in dues
with our next budget. Has the downturn in the economy made a difference
in your membership retention or other monetary donations to your
organization?
Thank you for your comments.
