BCP Membership Application

NEW in 2008! BCP membership starts immediately upon payment of dues, and runs for a full year from that point.
This "rolling" membership differs from the previous fixed year of April through March: memberships of those who join late in the year, November for example, will no longer expire in a few months; you get a full year of the newsletter.

To join or renew, please complete this application, make check payable to "BCP", and mail to BCP, P.O. Box 30235, Phila, PA 19103. Annual dues are $15 if you get the QR newsletter by email or from the Website, $20 if you get the paper newsletter via US mail.

There is no charge for additional members in your household, but all must sign the waiver.
