I joined in Oct or Nov of this year, this means I still need to renew my membership, correct? If it does, I'm up poo creek without a paddle, as I just can't afford it, if not, I'm still safe for awhile. Even if I'm not a member of the GSDCA, at present I don't think I'm missing out on anything, and I can always join again later.
