I signed up but never received a card. My husband, Richard McDaniel, who is new this year, did get his card -

Is this in regards to membership or Abe's Army? I have sent your comment to our membership coordinator.

Hannah - you paid the $60 Abe's Army fee, which is for SRRC members. Your membership expired on 12-31-08.

Your husband paid the $75 Abe's Army fee for non-members which makes him a members for the rest of the calendar year. I put that in as an adult membership and that's why he got a membership card in the mail.

To make a family membership for you and Richard, I would need just $5 from you (as family memberships are $20). You can download a membership form online from www.srrc.net and just write on it "Upgrade to family membership" and send a check for $5.00 to the address on the form or give to me at Abe's Army next week.

Hope this clears up the confusion!
