Invoices will be sent in December or January to current members who we are asking to renew by January 31st. If you are joining again or new to WBC, please fill out an application on this site by clicking "Join for 2024!" button and paying the membership dues.
2024 Dues:
2024 is going to be an exciting year for WBC! Membership dues for 2024 are $75, and due by January 31st, 2024. Dues pay for our website, programing and other operating costs throughout the year. We're back to pre-COVID membership dues of $75.
Luncheon fees pay for the room, our lunch, and taxes. Due to vendor pricing changes, starting January 1st, the cost of individual luncheons will increase from $15 to $20 per lunch. Great news though - you can keep the $15 luncheon rate by pre-paying the 2024 membership fee and all lunches in 2024 all at once in the amount of $255. This saves you $60 for the year!
