Hi Shango, As a member, they receive a copy of our Northwest Aquaria Newsletter and can see what is happening in our club. Who knows, we may want to invite some of these speakers back in the future to speak again on the same or another subject. It is a nice way to say "Thank You" and helps them to stay connected with us. That said, I would think two years would certainly be a maximum period. What do others think?
