Life
Membership
Dear
Prospective Member or Renewing Member:
In
response to those of you who have been asking why the MMA does not
offer a Life Membership option, I am pleased to announce that the
Board of Directors has voted to authorize a Life Membership. It is
available now. The cost is $300. Sorry, it is not an authorized tax-deductible
contribution. A laser engraved plaque is presented to each MMA
Life Member.
Robert
I. Hoidahl, Jr.
MMA President
