<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Brian,<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">We discussed this at our previous meeting, and determined that deciding on a lifetime membership option for our chapter would require a change to our chapters constitution. This was not something that we could decide at the chapter meeting
because it is a significant enough change That we need more than just two members and two board members present to discuss it. It is something that we’ve decided to table until a future chapter meeting, so if we do decide to have a lifetime membership option,
it will not be available for the current year. At least certainly not before the convention. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"> hello Jamie. There is a lifetime membership option available. My understanding is that<br>
the chapters need to vote on what the lifetime membership would be for a given chapter. At the<br>
board meeting, Tim suggested 10 years of dues, for example. Have we had a discussion at our<br>
meetings talking abut what we want our lifetime membership dues to be?<br>
<br>
In the absence of any previous numbers, I'll start with a proposal of $50/person for lifetime<br>
membership. <br>
<br>
Any discussion?<br>
-thanks<br>
-Brian<br>
