NOTES OF INTEREST:

Important membership update for everyone.  With the OT&W memberships being based on everyone being an NMRA member, a new renewal process is in place.  When you receive your renewal notice from NMRA bring it to the next club meeting or contact Dave Turner for renewal.  Provide your renewal $ amount based on $35 membership dues + $19 if you want the monthly magazine.  All associate members are $8.  This way your renewal in the club coincides with your NMRA membership. This will eliminate confusion and also the possibility that you may wind up with 2 simultaneous NMRA memberships!!


Attention "N" Scalers.  There is a new module being incorporated. If you currently have a module and have been participating at shows you qualify for an upgrade!! Contact your N-scale VP or other members for additional information!!  HO scalers, you will be also be upgrading so stay tuned!!
