**** Important membershIp InformatIon ****

MEMBERSHIP RENEWALS ARE DUE JANUARY 1, 2018

It's time to renew your membership in PBGVCA.  To ease the record keeping burden, PBGVCA uses a Membership Man-

agement System where each member is responsible for keeping his or her information up-to-date.  This system has 

automated the yearly membership renewal process, provides a convenient way to sign up and pay for events, and 

brings important information to members via the PBGVCA News emails.  Please help your club's dedicated membership 

volunteers by following this renewal process.

MEMBERSHIP RENEWAL PROCESS

On or around November 1st, you should receive a notice sent via e-mail for membership renewal through the PBGVCA 

Membership Management System.  This e-mail gives you the opportunity to go to the PBGVCA website for the renewal 

of your membership and pay on-line.  PBGVCA uses Pay Pal to process credit/debit card payments.  If you do not wish to 

use a credit/debit card, you can print off the e-mail and send your membership check to:

 

PBGVCA Treasurer

 

PO Box 26716

 

Phoenix, AZ  85068

Since many use some type of spam filtering, please add admin@pbgvca.com e-mail address into your personal con-

tact/address list.

Members who do not renew their membership by April 1 will need to reapply for membership if they wish to be PBGVCA 

members and continue to receive Saber Tails and other benefits.   Reminder e-mails are sent on January 1 and February 

1.  If you receive one of the reminder e-mails and have already paid your membership, please contact PBGVCA Treasurer 

via e-mail - treasurer@pbgv.org.

PLEASE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION UP-TO-DATE

In order to receive your Saber Tails, participate in voting and receive other information, it is very important to update 

your contact information.  You can elect to keep your contact information for members only or you can have your con-

tact information available for public viewing.
