Starting February 3, 2025, membership dues began a pay-what-you-can model. The recommended dues rate for all Leagues is $75, but you may contribute any amount above that or a minimum of $20. If you are joining or renewing on behalf of another person, the recommended contribution is 50% of your paid dues.
If your current dues are higher than $75, we encourage you to continue paying at that level to help sustain our League’s budget.
Please note that our League receives only 20% of your dues. For more information on how dues are distributed, please scroll below to the MEMBERSHIP DUES chart.
