Dues Letter

[IceNine]

ok first of all its 15 dollars... AND if they do not pay national dues on time they are not allowed to test by national regulation so where is the hangup?

A little help here, folks.  I'm asking for help in looking at a receiver friendly template, example, form, etc., of a squadron dues request letter.  No where in my inquiry do I ask for amateur tax advice.  Will anyone step up and help a fellow CAP squadron?  Thank you.

Here's what I use... simple & to the point...I use just a reminder... as most of us can and do forget the annual renewal...  and this is emailed only to those members who are coming up on renewing... with easy contact and /or links to get them where they need to renew quickly. ... this has saved a whole bunch of paperwork if they renew before they expire... especially pilots' quals etc.  (I also include my contact phone #'s ... which I sure ain't gonna give you CAPtalkers!

Until June 30th, when the Wing Banker Program goes into effect for our Wing,...

Starting in July, we will be compelled to turn over the entire contents of our bank account to Wing, who will control it after that.  Supposedly, we can continue to spend it as we want, but they will write all of the checks.  We shall see how that works out, I have my doubts.

Here in the PA wing... we've been working with the "one wing bank acct" since the end of last summer and it has been working quite well... our squadron has never had a problem and all our bills (paid by wing, at our direction) are paid on time.

It's actually relieved our squadron of a lot of the finance worry.

Is this movement an effort to make the Finance specialty track a wing only type of track? Or will Finance officers still be necessary at the unit? If so, then what would they do at the lower level?
