IMPORTANT DUES ANNOUNCEMENT

 

ACF will be reverting to a January-December membership schedule for paying and renewing dues, with the objective that dues will be renewed at the end of the year in the future.  This will affect all types of memberships (below) except life members:

 

Regular US - $25

Canadian - $35 (or $25 with e-bulletin option)

Overseas - $40 (or $25 with e-bulletin option)

Junior (e-bulletin only) or Associate member (no bulletin) -- $10

 

To verify when your membership expires, please check your bulletin address label or your membership card (or contact ACF secretary) for expiration and pay according to your renewal month (the month after expiration).  A pro-rated dues scheme for each membership type is shown below:
