From Lon Knickerbocker, the Carder Steuben Club Treasurer
Good day to the entire membership of the Carder Steuben Club and also those that are not members yet,

We are now into the second official week of our annual membership and dues drive effort, annual dues are due the first day of each year. I want to thank the membership for making the effort to get dues in in a timely fashion, this makes record keeping much easier.

At this point about 150 of our 200 members have paid their annual dues. If you have not already done so won’t you please take care of it today. The annual dues are what keeps organizations like ours both growing and able to support good causes in our field.

You may have noticed i mentioned the number 200, that’s right, we are right there on the edge. We ended 2011 with 192 members and have had several new joinees putting us close to the 200 member plateau. This organization has never had 200 hundred members and it sure would be nice to make it at this time. The down side is if we lose any of our current members it will be that much tougher to get to 200.

In lieu of sending out individual notices can those of you who have yet to pay your annual dues please do it today!

Annual dues have remained the same amount for many years now, $35. for a individual membership and $55. for a two person household membership. You can pay your annual dues or join the Carder group by going to the club’s website and selecting the Paypal option and following the easy instructions or you can mail a check to the club’s postal box at:

Carder Steuben Club
PO BOX 543
Dansville NY 14437

Well, i think i covered many of Carder’s colors, have a great day and as always keep collecting, it’s fun
