The OBWA is now changing when our annual membership fee of $100 will be due. All members will have a renewal date of Sept. 1
st. each year for their annual membership. The majority of our members have not paid their dues during the pandemic. Those members will need to renew their memberships starting January 1, 2022 for a pro-rated amount of $60. That will put the member in good standing from Jan.1, 2022 until Sept.1, 2022. Then on Sept. 1, 2022 everyone will pay their membership dues which will cover their membership for Sept.1, 2022 until September 1, 2023. Members have the privilege of posting on social media & have their information about their business and themselves on our website as well as posting on FB.. Non-members can attend meetings though without the other privileges. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact one of our executive members.
