I am willing to bet that the majority of membership is in full support of this current increase of $5 for dues and in full support of all BOD memhers who took the time to figure this all out while keeping this increase to a bare minimum; 5-bucks, the cost of one beer that gets pissed away in a matter of minutes as compared to how the 5-bucks will go to the cost of maintaining our fine magazine at its current level and do what needs to be done to keep our world-class convention on the path it is on. Bravo...!
