AIS: Membership Renewal



Anner Whitehead sends:

-----------------------------------

Greetings.

This is a gentle reminder to all those whose AIS memberships are
expiring 
December 31, 2001. 

Now is time to get those checks written and sent to the AIS Membership 
Office. Remember, the date your dues arrive in the Office is the date
your 
membership is renewed, not the date you drop the check in the mail, or
the 
date you give it to someone to send in for you. To avoid delays and 
confusion, we always encourage AIS members to tender their dues directly
to 
the AIS Membership Office. 

AIS policy provides that all those who have paid to renew before the
mailing 
list for the January AIS Bulletin is finalized will be included in that 
mailing list, but persons renewing later must request the January
Bulletin 
from the Membership Secretary. Those persons may expect delays in
receiving 
the January issue since sending them out does not take precedence over
other 
Membership Office business, and winter is a very busy part of the year
for us 
with Affiliations season kicking into high gear. The best way to make
sure 
you receive your January Bulletin as early as possible is to renew
before 
your membership expires. 

As an additional courtesy from AIS a Final Notice of Expiration will be
sent 
sometime in mid-January to the unrenewed, but sending those costs AIS a
good 
deal in postage and other resources and I am confident we would all
agree 
that such monies are better applied elsewhere. 

If you thought your membership was expiring this year but you did not
get a 
Renewal Notice from me, please feel free to drop me a note. Renewal
Notices 
are sent by First Class Mail, but in any mailing as large as that of the 
Notices there are bound to be some pieces which go astray. If you know
your 
AIS Membership Number--you do know your AIS Membership Number don't 
you?--please include it when you write. Including your Membership Number
when 
you communicate with the AIS Membership Office always ensures the
fastest 
possible service to you.

Our best wishes for happy holidays and a floriferous New Year to
everyone 
from The American Iris Society.

Cordially,

Anner M. Whitehead
AIS Membership Secretary
