Club Resources
Prepare Dues Invoicing
The international, district and multiple district dues invoices your club will receive are all based on the club roster as of June 30 and December 31. The international association will issue credits for invoiced dues only on members dropped by July 31 and January 31. District and multiple districts rarely issue credits for dues invoiced, so it is important for the club secretary to keep the membership roster accurate. To ensure that your club is not held accountable for dues owed by members that are no longer in your club, work with your club secretary to review your membership roster immediately in July. 10/11/2023
