membership process and dues 

Please see the Constitution (under the News and Resources tab) and refer to Article III.  This fully explains the process by which women are provided membership status, including Active membership, Associate membership, Honorary Life Membership, or Non-resident membership. A prospective member shall obtain from and return to the membership chairman an application form with a copy of her diploma, transcript of credits, or other proof.  Payment of dues must accompany the application. A member of the association must sign the application form as the prospective member's sponsor. The Executive Committee must approve the name for membership and the applicant will be notified in writing. (If the applicant is not accepted, then the dues will be returned to the applicant.) The new member will then be formally introduced at a subsequent regular meeting. 
NOTE:  The Membership Chairperson for the current year is Sue Breisch;
              Shirley Nicholson is in charge of the Photo Directory.

Renewal Form:
Click HERE for a form that you may fill out for (2023-2024) and then print and mail.  
NOTE: If you cannot print the form, just mail in your check by August 31 to be included in the Yearbook.
               Blank forms will be available for you at the October meeting.

Any annual dues received after May 1 shall be considered as paid-membership-fees for the following year. Dues are payable by August 31.

NOTE: Currently the annual membership fee is $40.00 and is sent to the Treasurer, Jean Short.
The $40.00 dues allocation is as follows:
  • CWC Scholarship Fund:                        $2.00
  • Felker Fund                                              $2.00
  • CWC                                                        $36.00
TOTAL                                                               $40.00
NOTE from Jean Short (Sept. 2024): If membership money is not received from a member, then that member will be deleted from the CWC data base. (See CWC Constitution, Article IV, Section 2.) Questions? Contact Jean Short by phone or email.

​NOTE: Membership fees do not include luncheons. There is an additional $22.00 charge for each luncheon attended. That payment is made for each particular month by means of a check to the assistant treasurer. 
(The provided reservation form is only needed if you are bringing a guest, etc.) This $22.00 luncheon payment is separate from the membership dues. This year, all luncheon reservations are sent to the Assistant Treasurer, Sandy Mefford. Reservation forms appear in the monthly newsletters.

Waiver Form:  Each member will be asked to provide a signed Waiver Form for release of information (i.e., name and/or photo) for use on our website and/or Facebook page.  Please click HERE for that form.
