MEMBERSHIP REPORT<br />

Our membership is doing better than last year;<br />

we have 737 members but still have 62 Nobles<br />

who have not paid their dues. We need for<br />

these Nobles to submit their payments. There<br />

are numerous ways to pay, and we can set up<br />

installment plans with automatic withdrawal<br />

from your bank if you wish. We submitted our<br />

final per capita and hospital assessment<br />

payment to Imperial; it was in excess of<br />

$10,000. We must pay for every Noble on our<br />

rolls whether they pay their dues or not. If any<br />

of these 60+ Nobles goes NPD and is<br />

suspended, we are out their $35 paid to<br />

Imperial. We continue to grow new members;<br />

we have created 10 new Nobles, but have lost<br />

12 to the black camel. With a couple of<br />

restorations, we are ahead by 2. This is where<br />

our next big push will be, in restorations. Any<br />

Noble who was suspended for NPD in the last<br />

3-5 years will be getting a call and a letter. We<br />

need your help with this and creations. If you<br />

would like to assist, please call the office.<br />

PAY DUES HERE<br />
