Annual membership dues will be increasing in 2025.
2025 membership are now available on-line and at the participating local businesses shown below. 2024 memberships are no longer available.
We understand that receiving news of an increase in annual membership dues may be concerning, and we want to be open with you about why this decision was necessary. As you may know, our organization is affiliated with the BC Wildlife Federation. As such, we pay annual membership dues to them. This year they raised their dues, and as a result, we had no choice but to adjust ours as well. The last dues increase was in 2019. The main factors driving the increase are inflation, decrease in membership dues and an increase in total expenses. Although we work hard to keep costs down and minimize impacts on our members, we rely on the structure and support of the BC Wildlife Federation to provide many of the resources and services that benefit our club members. We remain committed to offering the best possible value and support for our members. The dues you pay go directly toward improving the services, programs, and projects that are vital to protecting and enhancing fish and wildlife in our province.
