Where do the dues go and can members see a financial report?
The dues are spent on providing services to the members. Each member receives a paid subscription to the Electrical Rebuilder’s Exchange, paid admission to the annual trade show, and reduced admission to seminars and technical education events put on by the association. An administrative office that is staffed with a part-time office manager was opened in March of 2004. The webmaster was changed from volunteer to a contract job in the fall of 2005, because of the large number of hours required each month to maintain the website. Previously, all association business was conducted out of the officer’s homes and businesses. Any member may request a copy of the current financial statement.
