Update on Membership Dues Relating to COVID Cancelled Meetings

We have discussed the situation with dues, and Mike has come up with what we both feel is a very fair way to deal with prepaid dues around the number of cancelled meetings. Here it is:

• First half-year memberships will be extended to cover the missed meetings. At this moment, that will mean they end at the end of October. Meetings after that would be at the usual $7 per meeting rate.

• No second half memberships will be sold to existing members.

• Full year members will get a prorated credit towards next years regular priced dues based on a percentage of cancelled meetings.

Right now, we’re at 8 cancelled out of 24 total, so that’s $20 off. This discount can’t be combined with the family discount, but the family discounted membership(s) will also get the $20 off if they existed for 2020, so they will be discounted. So each membership would be $40 ($60-$20) right now, if no more meetings are cancelled.
