[NRVR-Members] 2016 Membership Renewals & Cash/Check to 1/21 meeting

[Thomas Weeks]

Hey all!
It's that time again!  Time to re-up your NRVR membership for calendar year 
2016!

In short..
New membership form, and dues pricing for 2016:
        http://nrvr.org/membership/files/nrvr-application-pdf.pdf
Just fill it out and bring it Thursday night with your dues. 
:)


Membership Form Changes for 2016:
Please READ THE WAIVER as it has changed a little this year, then fill it out 
and and bring it signed, along with your membership check (or cash) to the 
Thursday meeting!


The Biggest Changes:
Due to running short of funds a couple times in 2015, we figured a membership 
fee bump of $5 would help keep us in the black, and is still not crazy high 
(as we still don't charge ANY launch fees, where most clubs do). 

So here's the new 2016 membership fee schedule:
-Student memberships are now $5 (no longer free)
-Personal membership now $20 (from $15)
-Family membership now $25 (from $20)

Also, since a couple of our kind officers took out a personal loan of $2k to buy 
us a really nice, brand new trailer (Thanks Carlos and Bob!), I added  an 
optional "donation" section to the 2016 form where you can help them pay it off 
within their life times! 

I (as the treasurer) will track any such donations. Just please let me know 
how you want your donation(s) tallied (for our paultry club bank account OR to 
the "trailer fund" (extra payment on the principal of the trailer)).

PLEASE DO NOT forget to bring BOTH the new, signed membership form AND a check 
or cash for the 2016 amount.

NOTE:  If you can't make the meeting, PLEASE mail me your renewal form and 
dues to arrive to me no later than 1/31.  As of that date, we will be 
scrubbing this [nrvr-members] email list and only re-adding active 2016 
members (so you could lose contact with us!).

I'm really excited with some of the changes we have coming in 2016, but I'll 
save the big announcements for the meeting! :)


Thanks all!
