TCA Membership Application

Dan,

You no longer need two signatures to join TCA anymore.  The bylaws were modified in 2011 or 2012 as I recall to make this change.  You may have an older application.  I know I have plenty sitting around that I need to recycle! 

Glad you decided to join a great organization.  I personally have learned so much about this hobby through TCA and most importantly have made life long friendships as a result of my participation at both a Division and National level.

Welcome aboard!

Great, thanks Jonathan.  

Hmm, I didn't renew last fall, and never heard from them. I was a member since 2002.

I've been to the museum twice, and York a few times but don't have any more plans to go back. While I like the TCA Quarterly, I didn't feel it was worth the cost. 

For example, my Astronomy club meets Twice a month and has a 20 acre observatory with antique and modern Telescopes worth over $500k and several buildings with a theater, kitchen, showers and camping facilities, the membership is 35.00.

I like the TCA and may call them to see if I can be reinstated. 

I'd be willing to pay 50$, I just wish most of my dues did go to supporting saleries, pensions and healthcare for employees of a club.

I pay 800$ a month for my own healthcare and I do not have a pension

I have received a membership application from a TCA member.  He has graciously signed for me as a sponsor.  I need one more signature before I can submit the application.  I would be happy to mail the form to anyone to sign and I will include a SSAE for it's return.

You can get the current app. here:

Welcome aboard!

Thank goodness. I'm going to sign up when I get to York and was concerned that the future reputations of any members who vouched for me would be permanently damaged.
