RE: Membership Renewal

Date: May 1, 2008 

            Please take a bow! The Albuquerque Theatre Guild would like to applaud you for your support during its first year of activity. Your membership, together with those of more than 150 colleagues and more than 20 theatre organizations, has given the Guild a strong start in 2007-08. This letter represents our standing ovation for you and our request for an encore. 

            It’s hard to believe that our first membership year is drawing to a close. All current memberships, including those offered at a reduced dues level since January, are due to end on July 1, 2008. We therefore invite you to renew your ATG membership for 2008-09 at the earliest opportunity.  

            Benefits: Members are entitled to elect representatives to the ATG Board of Directors; post résumé, headshot, notices, and opinions on the ATG website and blog page; and participate in ATG-sponsored events. In 2008-09, members will also receive some discounts at performances and other events sponsored by ATG member organizations. Please see the attachment entitled Benefits for Individual Members. 

            Dues: Individuals who have joined the ATG before July 1, 2008, may renew their memberships at the 2007-08 rate of $25 for one year or $75 for three years, provided that they renew no later than August 1, 2008. Those who renew after that date will be asked to pay dues of $30 for one year or $90 for three (i.e., the rate for new members in 2008-09). Dues for student members will remain at $15. For further information, please see the attachment entitled Individual Membership Renewal Form. 

            How to Renew: Complete the Individual Membership Renewal Form and return it with your dues payment. If you have questions, please contact ATG Secretary Hugh Witemeyer at 268-7579 or hughwit@unm.edu. 

            There are many excellent reasons to renew your ATG membership now. By acting promptly, you can save money and take advantage of improved benefits. At the same time, you can support an organization exclusively and passionately dedicated to promoting, advocating, and nurturing the theatre arts in our community. You have been the angels of a successful opening night. Encore, s’il vous plait! 

Yours sincerely,

The ATG Membership Committee: Fred Schwab (Chair), Hugh Witemeyer (Board Liaison), TJ Cardella, Cliff Garstka, Sr., Joni Lloyd, Linda Lopez McAlister, and Hal Simons
