Dues, dues, dues, dues...

New from International: Discounts are now being offered to chorus members who prepay their International Dues for extended periods as follows:
3 -Year Renewal    10% discount
5 -Year Renewal    20% discount
10 -Year Renewal  30% discount
Lifetime Renewal  One time payment of $1,200
Besides the discount, another benefit of multi-year membership is that during the multi-year term that you have paid for, you will not be affected by any dues increases. Members will still be responsible for local chorus dues and regional dues. If you are interested in signing up for a multi-year international membership, please contact Vivian Moran.

The Angel Fund is running low … if there are any "Angels" out there, contributions will be gladly accepted. Thanks.
Treasurer, Vivian Moran

Chapter dues are due on the first of the month. You have to be in good standing for the current month, in order to perform with the chorus. Contact Vivian Moran if you have any questions about the dues.
