BPW/WA Update

WA State dues for members have been raised to $25.00 beginning July 1, 2006. This change was made by the vote of the body at State Conference in May at Gig Harbor. National dues are currently $55.00 and will raise to $60.00 on October 1, 2007. National student dues are currently $16.00, and will increase $1.00 in 2007. Each local treasurer should notify national if they have a change in LO dues. Individual members who have been billed from National for their July or August dues probably will not reflect the change on their first billing. A second billing may reflect the $10 increase. During the transition, members who pay the previous amount may have a savings of $10 this year!

Local Memories

We will have a Scrap Book contest at our next Annual Conference... avoid the rush and begin one today for your local.

Suggestion: This can be one of your local’s program for the month.

Have a scrapbooking guest speaker come, ask each member to bring a few photo’s, and make a fun evening of it.
