Membership Drive
By Al Myers
Tis the time of the year for our yearly membership drive!
As most of you know, membership in the USAWA runs per calendar year, thus starting on January 1st and ending on December 31st. It doesn’t matter when you register during the year – your membership ends when the current year is up. So it pays to register early thus being able to be a member of the USAWA for the entire year.
I have already received the FIRST membership for the year 2019. The other day Dennis Mitchell sent me his dues and is now listed on the membership roster. EVERY YEAR Dennis registers before the current year is up. It is easy to register – fill out a membership application, write a check for your dues, and mail it to me. Once I get it I will place your name on the membership roster. It is easy to confirm your membership as all you need to do is check the roster on this website and look for your name.
Also, I want to mention here (and I hope Dennis is ok with this) that Dennis always sends in a little extra money to the organization to show his support on top of his yearly dues. That is sure appreciated, but please don’t feel like you have to do that. However, our membership dues barely cover our yearly expenses so if you want to help out the USAWA a little more and be like Dennis, it will be put to good uses in paying our bills and bettering our organization.
Last year we had 21 members register early. I would like to top that this year. To add a little incentive I plan to send everyone a little gift that sends in their dues before January 1st. I will keep the gift a secret and thus be a surprise for you when you get it!
