Hi everyone, I would like to give you information on the dues and fees for the Northern Kentucky Kendo Club for 2009. I will go over the local Dojo monthly dues first, then if you would like to attend a regional practice, national practice, test for rank or practice in a dojo other than the Northern Kentucky Kendo Club, you will need to pay the once-a-year fees for both the All United States Kendo Federation (AUSKF), and the region's fee for the East Central United States Kendo Federation (ECUSKF).
First off, the basic local monthly dues for the Northern Kentucky Kendo Club are $35. The monthly dues should be paid to either me (Jim Atkins), or Gerald Meade, no later than the 10th day of each month. Dojo dues must be paid each month for you to practice. If you will be out of town or unavailable for a month; maybe you have a "personal situation" brewing, speak to Gerald or myself about a waiver for the month. As you know, we practice Sunday mornings in Covington Ky and Wednesday evenings in Cincinnati at the Corryville Recreation Center. The Corryville Rec Center is a public facility. As a result, you will also need to complete a membership at the Corryville Center and obtain a membership card. If you cannot make it to Corryville to fill out the paperwork, speak to Gerald or me. Once you are a member at Corryville, you can participate in the programs and facilities the have available, in addition to our club practice there.
Secondly, to attend a regional practice, national practice, test for rank, or practice in a dojo other than the Northern Kentucky Kendo Club, you will need to pay regional and national dues. When you pay this once-a-year fee, your national and regional membership is good from January 1, 2009 through December 31, 2009
