Reminder: Regretfully, dues have been increased (the first increase since the 1960's!). Because of the increases in postage and other expenses related to Reunions, the Executive Committee believes that it is necessary to increase our annual dues. They are now $10 for an individual, or $20 per family (parents and kids under 18). Your support is greatly appreciated!
