2020 Membership
2020 Membership Update
Membership will be updated on a regular basis - we're off to a good start but need more participation!
As of Oct. 20, 2020: 370 members out of 744 residents or 50% have paid!
(0.497)
The PayPal/Credit Card online payment is a convenience for many - but sometimes it is difficult to identify who has paid for many reasons:
1. The membership is paid by a parent/grandparent with a different last name.
2. The address is not listed on the PayPal payment.
3. The person who paid may have a PayPal account listed in a different last name (maiden name before getting married, etc.
4. It could be a new family who moved in that we don't know about yet.
5. It could be someone who previously did not want to give their name & was listed as "Neighbor".
At this time, we are trying to find:
A. Kristin Martin, who paid on 2/22/2020. We want to give credit, but don't have a street address or person by that name listed in our directory.
B. Someone with an email, ricki@chorum.com who paid.
If you can help identify these residents, please email Martha Austin (Membership chairman) at mhaustin2001@yahoo.com
We want to give you credit & get your name & address correct!!
