I hope everyone is having a pleasant weekend. It's a glorious autumn day in Southeastern Pennsylvania. I am reaching out today concerning outstanding share fees for recent exchanges. I thank each of you who are current. Unfortunately, we have more than a few members who have balances due. We'd like to address the issue generally and help them become current. We are of course sensitive to the fact that folks put the fee slip aside and get distracted. Life gets in the way, absolutely, and the slip is forgotten. We are able to have these wonderful exchanges due to the extraordinary time volunteered by both the donating membership and the board members who organize and distribute same. In the past, we have made an effort to contact each member directly and ask them to bring their accounts current. This is no longer feasible due to the amount of members who are not paying their exchange fees timely, or who do not pay until prompted. We will no longer be sending out emails requesting payment. We trust our members to pay for their exchange shares and know a friendly reminder today will help further along the need for timely payment going forward. We appreciate your understanding in this matter as time spent tracking down payments is not an effective use of volunteer time. If you think that you may have outstanding fees, please contact Arnold. If you know you have fees that you haven't paid, kindly do so at your earliest opportunity. We wish everyone to have a pleasant and fulfilling experience with the exchanges, including our members who organize them. Attention to outstanding fees will make things a bit smoother.
