Sisters, last year we observed a Jubilee year from dues and registration fees. This year, dues are back. While there is no on-site registration, we will collect $50 dues on site. Payment methods include check and credit cards.  Additionally, when you register for the meeting/conference you will incur fees through the online platform. We hope to make that up during our time together with something special.
