APAVAC MEMBERSHIP

Dear members&membars;at  both our  AGM (Annual General Meeting) in Valencia and the Alicante meeting the need to find a new formula for membership  paying arose. We are looking for a user friendly  way both for members and our treasurer.

There is a suggestion to pay annually by standing order (recibo domiciliado) but that takes a bit of effort from our present and future associates as you will have to instruct your bank..etc. We are in touch with our man in CRM (Miguel Olmo)  to find a formula unfussy enough for everyone .

Currently wire transfers (transferencias) are being used  but it seems that some find this  clumsy and inconvenient.

Of course if you have any ideas please don't hesitate to contact us as we are really only poor ignorant English teachers who just about stumble to keep this organisation together. 

PS: Shortly we will let you know about our First APAVAC conference 14-15 october.
