Membership Fees

• Membership Fee: $15.00
• Annual Dues: $50.00 (collected each January)
• Breakfast Costs: $25 per meal, paid semi-annually (January 1 - June 30;  July 1 - December 31). Because breakfast costs are paid semi-annually, Forum does not refund money to members for meetings they miss.
  
• NOTE: Both Annual Dues and Breakfast costs are prorated from the date of membership.

Breakfast fees  represent 70% of our actual costs, understanding that members may miss  some meetings due to travel, family or other commitments.  The goal of Forum is  to break even every year.
