[VAcourier] [Fwd: SCV Telegraph- new members]

Sat Jan 30 14:04:45 EST 2010

This announcement on *National *prorated dues was just received on the 
SCV Telegraph. At this time, the Virginia Division does not have 
prorated dues, however, any dues received between our Division 
Convention in April and the National Reunion in July are automatically 
applied to the next billing cycle. This is essentially a free 3 month 
period for any *Division* dues on applications received between the two 
conventions.

Virginia Division SCV

 Compatriots,

Hopefully many of you are about the work of recruiting new members. In 
times past, camps would hold new member application that were done late 
in the fiscal year until the next fiscal year so that the new member 
would get a full year of membership. ( Our fiscal year being from one 
reunion to the next)

That is longer necessary. Just a few years ago we passed a way for 
members to prorate dues. That is paid regular dues plus some extra and 
that would cover them for the remaining of the year and the next.The 
benefit of this that that we get our new members now and they are 
already paid for next year.

I urge all camps to take advantage of this as you sign up new members 
between the present at the reunion this summer. Below you will find an 
explanation of how this works in more detail. The information can also 
be found on our website under /forms and documents./

Keep up the good work!

DUES PRORATION

This is the way the prorated dues system works:

The SCV operates on a fiscal year (not calendar) beginning August 1st of 
one year and going through July 31st of the following year. The current 
fiscal year, August 1, 2009 through July 31, 2010, which will be shown 
as status 2009 on your roster, and it means the member's dues are paid 
through July 31, 2010. Additionally, there is a 3 month grace period 
from August 1st through November 1st when members are still current 
while camps work to collect the annual dues for the next fiscal year. 
Dues submissions postmarked after November 1st of each year are subject 
to a $5 late fee in addition to the normal $30 dues. This extra $5 fee 
also applies to all delinquent members wishing to reinstate.

If someone reinstates or joins as a new member in February, March, or 
April 2010 (which is technically the 3rd quarter of our fiscal year) he 
can pay his $30 yearly dues and the $5 processing fee, and he has the 
option to pay an additional $15 for a total of $50 to join for both the 
current fiscal year as well as the next fiscal year, meaning his dues 
will be paid through July 31, 2011.

If someone reinstates or joins as a new member in May, June, or July 
2010 (which is technically the 4th quarter of our fiscal year) he can 
pay his $30 yearly dues and the $5 processing fee, and he has the option 
to pay an additional $7.50 for a total of $42.50 to join for both the 
current fiscal year as well as the next fiscal year, meaning his dues 
will be paid through July 31, 2011.

IMPORTANT

Please remember that this prorated dues option is only available when 
the member pays dues for both the current and next fiscal years. There 
is not an option to pay only the partial dues for remainder of the 
current fiscal year. This prorated dues policy, originally adopted at 
the 2005 Nashville Convention, is a great improvement over the past 
practice when men who joined during the last six months of the fiscal 
year had only one option which was to pay the entire $30 for the 
remaining months in the fiscal year and the three month grace period. 
Any new member or reinstatement refusing to take advantage of the 
proration system in the 3rd or 4th quarter of our fiscal year will be 
responsible for national dues again beginning Aug. 1st of the next 
upcoming fiscal year.

***PLEASE DO NOT JUST SEND THE PARTIAL PRORATED DUES AMOUNT WITHOUT 
INCLUDING A FULL YEAR'S DUES WITH IT***
