Membership Dues Payments
Dues renewal notices were sent to all primary contacts in the NAFEM database
October 8, 2009. If you haven't paid your company's 2010 membership dues,
they are now past due. Remember, if you intend to exhibit at The NAFEM
Show in 2011, the online space selection process begins in June 2010. Only
members in good standing are eligible
to participate.
To pay online, you
need to log in to the For Members section of this site.
If for some reason you choose not to pay online, please call NAFEM Headquarters
so we can ensure the security of your credit card information. For
questions about your membership status or the dues payment process, contact
Celeste Jackson, +1.312.821.0223;
cjackson@nafem.org.
