TI Announcement of Membership Dues Increase wef 1/10/11‏

Dear Friends,

You are in our thoughts.

“On October 1 2011, Toastmasters International membership dues will increase from USD $4.50 to USD $6.”
- Summary of impact of Toastmasters International Membership Dues sanctioned by 2010-2011 International President and DTM Pat Johnson and Executive Director Daniel Rex.

As we know the importance of having a good quality education at affordable prices for the masses, we have decided not to follow the practice of other clubs in increasing the amount of membership dues collected.

We will be defraying the increase of USD $1.50 per month with the prudent surplus that our predecessors have painstakingly accumulated since club inception days. This arrangement will last until the end of our current Executive Committee term 2011-2012.

This means that a yearly club subscription in our Buona Vista Toastmasters Club will remain at an affordable S$156 until June 2012. That works out to S$13 per month, a wonderful opportunity for non-members to join us and experience the Toastmasters programme before paying more in future.

We urge members to help us in every way to ensure the continuity of a lean and cost effective club by reducing waste and volunteering your expertise when the club needs help.

Warmest Regards,
Ronald Sim
Treasurer
Executive Committee 2011-2012
