***Everyone who joined after July 1, 2021 started with our new "anniversary year" membership cycle. Before then, it was prorated based on the month you joined, and everyone's renewal date was 12/31. So, we still do an annual campaign to remind the masses of the calendar year renewal.

In 2024, the

Directory that had been included in the dues is now an additional charge for 2024 This was to save money.
Today I received notice that dues are goin up to $99.00 due to raising costs.
That amounts to $39.00 plus $24.00 in 2 years.
I wish my $SS went up that much.

I wonder if the WBCCI still has that $1,000,000+ in savings they used to brag about back when we were members?

And if so, why “rising costs” are being passed on to members?

Who’s making these decisions and how are they justified?

The need for the increase is explained pretty thoroughly starting at about 47 minutes into the Board of Trustees meeting video.

Do they still have the million plus in savings?

I think that is something members, and would be members, would want to know.

Yeah, my $SS has not gone up 33%. I bet my grocery bill has though, maybe more. A sign of the times. Government spending is out of control, every dollar printed reduces the value of every existing dollar.

I know, stating the obvious...

Very good explanation of the need for dues increase was provided at the IBT meeting. If you were unable to attend, the recording will be posted to the website soon: https://airstreamclub.org/internatio...-2024-business.
