~Membership Dues Due~

It’s a new year! Yes, July 1 marks the beginning of the fiscal year for the Society and Membership Dues are due between now and the end of September.

Many of you have routinely paid your dues when registering for the Annual Workshop. As announced early in the year the TGS Annual Workshop has been discontinued so you will not be receiving that notice and dues reminder.

Your membership is important in so many ways. It helps the Society maintain our library and research facilities, produce high quality publications and present informative classes and programs to enhance genealogical research.

Thank you for remitting your dues promptly to Tulsa Genealogical Society, P.O. Box 585, Tulsa OK 74101-0585 – or – when you drop by the library to research.
