NEW & RENEWING MEMBERS: PLEASE NOTE

Starting in 2010, the WSSA is changing its membership period from the current calendar year (January 1 through December 31) to the “Conference Year”, which will be April 1 through March 31 of each year.The purpose of this change is to make it easier for members to pay the conference fees at the same time that other WSSA payments are due. We will also be changing the fee structure so that anyone paying for the conference will automatically become a member of the association.

To avoid confusion and double payments, the expiration date for all 2009 memberships will be extended to midnight (EST) of March 31, 2010.

Therefore, anyone who purchased a membership for the 2009 calendar year will not need to renew membership until March 31, 2010.

Memberships purchased for 2010 will start on April 1, 2010, and end on March 31, 2011.

The link for those who are both paying the 2010 dues and registering for the 2010 conference is below. For those who wish to pay their membership dues separately, the links for both the 2009 and 2010 on-line membership forms are on our “Membership” page. The 2009 on-line form will be available until the end of November. It will then be removed, and only the 2010 on-line form will appear.

 

pre-registration

Pre-registration will be available until March 28, 2010.  Late pre-registration, costing an additional $10, will be available from March 29 through April 8, 2010.  There will be no registration activity between midnight, EST, on April 8 and 3:00pm PST, April 14, when registration opens at the conference site.
