Texas Society SAR Dues & Transfers
Contact the Big Country Chapter Secretary with questions!
Texas Society SAR Dues:
Payable by mid-December annually, unless you've chosen the
Perpetual option.
Check it out as the Perpetual fee was revised slightly downward a few years back. Dues are payable between November 1st and
mid-December via Texas SAR online or U.S. mail.
A late payment is better than no payment! Please avoid the need for a reinstatment.
For Texas SAR members in good standing who plan to remit by year end:
- Use the Texas SAR Dues Invoice mailed to you and follow its instructions. It was mailed to your last known postal address.
- Or use the Texas SAR Online Dues & Donations payments method.
Your National Society member number and either a PayPal or Credit Card is required.
Note: Each chapter may have their own dues rate, they are not all the same.
Be sure to select the primary chapter for the coming new year! The payment total will include the National Society, Texas Society
and Chapter portions. Other payment options are available, including Dual Chapters, Special Membership Categories, Unrestricted Donations
and Specific Award programs. One payment should handle all your needs.
After your fees are identified and you continue for the actual payment, PayPal or Credit Card options are available.
If you experience a browser error about Popup Blockers, follow the simple online instructions to disable your browser Popup Blocker
prior to restarting the Texas SAR online payment form. Once completed, then re-enable your Popup Blocker as you may desire.
