I hope you went to the meeting! I am on the membership committee for my guild. I only get to the PO box 1x a month, others check it also, and bring to the meeting any mail for us. Deposits are done after the meeting for memberships received in the last month.As others have said, we are volunteers, and most of us work full time, plus have family obligations. I do think someone should have answered your e-mail. I always try to answer those within a couple of days. Sorry you haven't heard anything back from that. If you did go to the meeting, hope you were welcomed and enjoyed your evening.
