Have we got a deal for you Now dont be scared this wont be painful at all. Of the four or five major roping associations in the country, we intend to have the most reasonable membership fee every year. Our goal is only to cover the cost of operating a service to our members. In 2010, our first membership year, we priced our memberships at $40 per year. The justification for this being that we calculated $10 to the Classifications contract, $20 for communications (magazine, Etc), and $10 was rebated to the contractors handling and collecting memberships. After we looked at all 2010 costs we lost about $11 per membership. In other words for every $40 membership we sold, we spent $51, resulting in the raise of our membership renewal to $50 this year.

Since the real cost to us comes from handling first time members and setting their handicaps, first time memberships will be $60. Here is the real deal, we will give you folks an option to continue paying the $40, but it must be a multi-year deal. We are offering a three year membership for $120 dollars. Its our thinking that this will minimize hassle for both of us, while passing the savings right back to you. Here are your membership options:

Renewal Membership $50.00

First time Membership $60.00

Three year option $120

Weekend Permits $20 .

(Permits must be purchased at least one week in advance of WS qualification events and cannot be purchased the day of an event. Permits are not accepted at Special Fees ropings.)

Double Numbers are Free, But....... If you ask for them when you apply for the membership they are free. But if you ask for them after you have received you initial card and the classification phone calls made again, print an additional card and do the work---then $10.00.
