Hey folks,

So Jason, Nick, and Eric have told you "what a bargain" it is to be a member of OMG.  While it truly IS one of the best deals among Makerspaces, the fact is, we need to pay our bills.  We can do that one of three ways:
     1) Get more members
     2) Get more folks paying $35 a month
     3) Raise our membership dues.

I think we can all agree that #3 is not desirable.  But #1 and #2 are certainly attainable.  To help do that, Kevin and Eric are going to help sponsor a little "contest".  To put it simply, we would like to increase our autopay subscriptions by $200 in the next 2 months.  If we achieve that goal, there will be 2 rewards!  First, Kevin and Eric will supply a pizza dinner for the December meeting, for all to enjoy.  Second, there will be a drawing at the December meeting for all members at the $35 subscription (autopay) rate, with the winner received a $35 gift card to the new Northern Tool store.

How can you help (and win)?
     1) If you are not currently a member, but have enjoyed being a part of OMG, please start a monthly membership subscription at whichever rate you are comfortable with.  Our goal is to increase our subscriptions by $200, be it (6) $35 subscriptions or (13) $15 subscriptions.
     2) If you are currently at our basic $15/month, please consider stepping up to a keyholder membership at $35/month.  If (10) people did that, we'd hit our goal immediately.
     3) Get your friends and family down to The Makery, and convince them to become subscription members, too!

And while it won't hit our goal, if you are currently a paying member but not using the PayPal subscription (such as cash/check or lump-sum payments), please also consider changing your payment over to the PayPal subscription service.  This gives us a clear picture of our monthly income, and makes budgeting a boat-load easier!

Your membership makes OMG a success.  We hope you can help us grow!  I've got a slice of pepperoni that says you can!

Thanks!

What?! PIZZA?! Count me in!

In all seriousness, just upped my subscription to a Keyholder like I've been intending to do for months.

I guess it's time for me to finally subscribe, instead of sporadically paying in several-month chunks - especially seeing how I've been down at the space a lot more often recently and having a great time.
