In the Mail: MCAA Membership Dues

Words: Bob AbelRenewal notices for the July 2009 — June 2010 term have been sent.

Members have the option to renew the annual membership online and update their profile online. If you prefer, you can still mail in your payment when the invoice arrives.

Also for this year we’ve made available the option of paying your annual dues in monthly installments. This way you can have the payment set up to be automatically deducted from a business banking or credit account. You simply fill out the attached forms that will accompany your renewal statement and we will schedule the payment. Or you can go to the online renewal site to request this option and we’ll go ahead and send you the appropriate forms. Keep in mind this isn’t a month-to-month membership agreement but rather a way for you to pay the annual dues in monthly increments.

As always, the MCAA appreciates your commitment and support. Together we are stronger.
