Membership - Our Foundation Our Museum, Our Story, Our Way MEMBERSHIP has been at the foundation of all our accomplishments From grant applications, state and federal support to corporate fund-raising, the true determining factor has been the answer to this question: “Does the community support this project?” Because our membership reaches across the county, state and region, we can say “YES” and prove it with the MEMBERS who give annually to the work of the Museum. We hope that if you’re not a member, or haven’t renewed in awhile, you will consider. There’s nothing more important to our long-term sustainabilty than a growing membership. You are very much needed and welcomed! If you are already a member, THANK YOU! We hope you will consider gift memberships, student memberships for your kids and grandkids, teacher memberships for the teachers in your life and encouraging YOUR FRIENDS to join at whatever level they so choose. ALL are important and appreciated! Membership supports programing and operations, special projects, maintains the building and provides a community center for all Down East throughout the year. The CSWM&HC is community-owned and operation, made possible by its members and the community it serves. If you love Down East and believe that it is important to preserve and celebrate this way of life and its traditions, your investment - as a member and volunteer - is vitallly important. This is YOUR story, YOUR heritage, YOUR museum! Membership to the Core Sound Waterfowl Museum & Heritage Center is a vital part of the Museum’s operations and programming budget. Its membership of more than 2000 members provides more than 30% of its annual budget, making this institution truly “communitybased.” Membership is available at the following levels: Student or Teacher $15, Individual $30, Family $50, Business $75. These levels receive the annual print: Bronze members $125, Silver $500 and Gold $1,000. For a one-time gift of $3,000, Lifetime Members receive all past and future membership prints as well as inclusion on the Lifetime Member plaque at the Museum. Membership prints from past years are still available. Please contact the Museum office for availability. 2016 Membership Print For those looking to support the museum any day is a great day to join, but especially Waterfowl Weekend! This weekend brings together all the good reasons to support the Museum -- great programs, beautiful exhibits, interesting artists and carvers, the best seafood ever and wonderful people who care about our communities and our heritage. Those who join or renew their membership at the bronze, silver or gold levels will receive the 2016-2017 Core Sound Museum Membership Print. Already a collector’s item, “Core Sound by Firelight” goes back to the CSWM&HC’s first anniverary, it’s 10th in 2002. Alan Cheek wrote then, My rendering of artifacts of Core Sound - hand carved decoys from its storied carvers, boat models representing its wellrespected boatbuilders, simpe cords used by its fishing industry and an 1837 chart of Core Sound - reveals a simpler time when the “highway” was Core Sound and it took the better part of a day to go from Harkers Island to Hunting Quarters. These handmades are cast in the light of antiquity by the “firelight,” which was used for hunting its abundant waterfowl. 45
