IPMS USA/New Members Incentive

[Anthony Leger]

Gents,

In an effort to recruit new members and to reward those who assist in that goal, the IPMS/USA Executive Board voted to enact a new incentive program during the Board Meeting at the 2008 National Convention in Virginia Beach.
The program is simple - we're asking our membership to help us increase our ranks. Any current member in good standing who recruits a new member will receive a free ONE YEAR membership extension. This program has been extended indefinitely by the IPMS/USA Executive Board at the 2009 National Convention.

A "new" member is defined as someone who has never before been a member of IPMS/USA, or whose last paid membership expired before September 30, 2004. This incentive is limited to one extension reward per current member, regardless of how many new members he or she brings in.
