2009/2010 NCARF Membership Incentive  
 
dollar sign NCARF Leadership would like to give back to membership      during this economic downturn by initiating an incentive to     all members who renew their membership with NCARF this year. Once all membership dues have been collected, your organization will receive a "stimulus rebate check" reflecting approximately 25% of your dues paid from the previous year.

2009/2010 NCARF Membership Renewal Invoices have been emailed and mailed.  Please complete and return the application by August 31, 2009 to maintain your membership! 
 
During this economic situation it is vital we ban together and partner with NCARF. 
 
Contact Nicole Shore at nshore@firstpointresources.com with any questions.
