3. New Membership Structure
We are proud that our members haven't seen a dues increase since 2019, and we are excited to roll out a new structure that will allow us to better serve you. With a tiered dues structure, you can choose the benefits you want without paying for those that you don't!
A few items to note:
- We’re moving to a digital-ONLY invoicing system to be more environmentally friendly. Paper invoices are still available BY REQUEST ONLY.
- New dues structure details:
- Changes go into effect January 1 and will be applicable to each member in their 2025 renewal month
- 3rd Friday pricing remains the same
- Downtown merchant pricing will be stairstepped over three years
- Nonprofit pricing applies to organizations under $1 million in revenue
Below you'll find helpful descriptions of each membership level, as well as a visual chart to help you understand the benefits included for each.
