Q3 dues are due
 
The EKSR dues account is with Gateway Bank.
  • Know there are 2 ways to pay dues. First: by check made to EKSR. There are no processing fees by writing a check. Give the check to our Treasurer, Kendall Hillis at the next meeting. Your receipt will be your cleared check.
  • Second is online with a credit card. There is a 3% convenience charge that EKSR must pay with each credit card dues payment. You'll have the option of covering that 3% fee. We find that of those who pay online, about ½ of us include the fee in their payment.
