Membership Renewal Time

It’s the start of a new year, and that means that SoAR memberships, which run from January to December, are up for renewal.  At last year’s business meeting, the club passed an increase in basic dues to $20/year ($50 for “Frequent Flyer” status), which has now taken effect.

The membership pages of the new site will be up soon, so you’ll be able to renew online at that time.  Or you can still do things the old way and write a check to Southern Area Rocketry and mail it to:

Kevin Scholberg
