The current 2023 Alamo Chapter Membership
Status Roster
lists 74 names that
include all Honorary, Life, Active, Inactive, and Potential Members. This Roster total
was down from the December 2020 Roster - which had a total or
112 names listed. This reduction was due to eliminating
Inactive and Potential
individuals who had been carried on the 2020 Roster for more
than 3 years - with no participation or no e-mail replies
prior to January 2021.
Effective January 2023, the
Roster was further scrubbed by removing
Inactive
names who had not paid dues in over 3 years, along with
Potential
names who had not respond to Chapter e-mails in over 3 years.
Active Membership (still
only $20.00 - Annually)
covers the year when paid, and good for
January - December
of that year. Of course, Life Membership is always an option.
Just open the Alamo Chapter Membership Application (PDF)
Form, complete everything that is applicable, and mail your
Annual or Life Membership check to the address shown on the
Application Form.
