Much time and work has been rendered by many individuals to upgrade our website to allow the association to keep its members better informed. The site provides professional links which will be found to be of great value to all who utilize them. Eventually the site will offer capabilities for individuals to pay for new memberships, membership renewals, seminar registration fees, and hopefully in the future merchandise purchases.
