EARLY BIRD MEMBERSHIP FEES
A reminder that if you renew your membership by February 28th you will realize a saving. Also of note, the Individual category is just that and is NOT a business membership. Even if you are an owner operator of a small business with no employees the basic early bird fee is $140.00 for that category. As an Honour System we ask that you please check your receipt to see if you have correctly paid for this year. Apologies if the new rates were confusing.
