At the time of this writing, over 100 members have not paid their dues yet. If your annual dues have not been paid and you have trash service, it will be discontinued on April 1, 2020.  If you cannot pay the entire amount of your dues, you may pay the cost of the trash service to keep it going. And please remember, you cannot register any boats until all your dues have been paid.

As the COVID-19 situation is evolving so are our standard operating procedures. For now, our office is remaining open, but by the time you read this, things may be different.  We encourage our members to utilize the Association website to download forms you may be inclined to pick up at the office.  We have a drop box that you can use outside the building for dropping off payments.  We will answer your questions on the phone or by email.  We will also be waiving the courtesy fees for credit card payments made over the phone in order to keep our staff and membership safe and healthy.

Finally, our Association Board President, Terry Haug decided not to run for re-election as District Director.  He served as President for a little over 7 years.  I think we all owe him a huge debt of gratitude for his service to the community and wish him well in his well-deserved retirement.
