Membership Information
Two Basic Types of Memberships
Sustaining Members
Sustaining members are basically donors who believe in our mission and support our work through their membership dues, but being an active member does not fit into their lives at present and any rank held is honorary. When you complete the membership form either active or sustaining must be selected.
Active Members
Any month in which you recruit 2 or more new members, your dues are waived. We are not here to make a profit, only to organize. Anyone who joins before the end of 2011 will also be designated as a founding member. Active members will take part in a huge variety of endeavors from recruiting and administrative tasks to militia training and special purpose units. If you have any valuable skills you would like to make the most of, please inform us on the membership form.
