Basic Membership Facts

• Each membership year is a simple calendar year.
  
• All members, regardless of class of membership, receive a book published by the organization for that year (usually published the year after its designated membership year).
  
• Some books are two year books, meaning that the member had to have been a paid member for the specified two years to receive the book.
  
• You can become a member online, by pressing the payment button at the bottom of this page, or you can print out a membership form and mail it to us with your check. We will send your membership card to you.
  

Types of Memberships

Active Membership - $60 level

Benefits:

• Bulletin (book) when issued for that membership year
• Discounted book purchase rates for past CERA publications
• Notice of all regularly scheduled and special programs/meetings (10 a year)
• Notice of all fan/inspection trips

Contributing/Sustaining Memberships

Contributing membership - $120 level - $239  (Double that of an Active Membership)
Sustaining membership - $240 level (or more) (Double that of a Contributing Membership) 

Contributing and Sustaining members have the same rights and receive the same benefits as Active members. They help support CERA through their higher dues. The portion of those higher dues beyond the Active Membership level is deductible for income tax purposes as provided by law. Contributing and Sustaining members are further recognized by having their names published annually in the report to the membership.

Canadian and International Memberships

Please note: Due to increased postage costs to mail our annual entitlement book internationally, there is a $50 surcharge for Canadian members and a $70 surcharge for International Active members.
