The November meeting has been CANCELLED due to the Money Show.

*****  OCTOBER WAS DUES MONTH *****

$40 per year - cash or check (payable to Society of Market Technicians)

Send check to the address listed below


The annual SMT membership fee is due in October of each year. All meetings will be open only to registered members whose dues are current. Guests will be able to attend only one meeting before having to decide whether to join or not, and they will have to sign in at the front table for their "free" meeting.

The dues money is used only for meeting expenses, such as room rental and speaker fees (if any). SMT is a volunteer-led association that relies on member dues to defray necessary costs. Please keep your membership current so we can continue to meet. Membership also includes monthly meeting notices.
Dues are $40/year. Bring cash or a check to the next meeting and present it to Dick Messalle or Gloria Loew when you sign in at the front table. (Do not enter the rear door of the meeting room.) If you are using a corporate check, please print your name somewhere on the check. We need to know who gets credited with paid dues. New members must complete and submit our member application form. It is available from our website on the SMT Info page or the treasurer at the next meeting. We need name, address, phone numbers, email address and interests. If you are unable to attend the meeting, mail your check to:

Sondra Katz
10905 Lombardy Road
Silver Spring, MD  20901-1636

 


We meet the first Thursday of each month at 7:30 PM at: Ring House, 1801 E. Jefferson St., Rockville, MD  20852. Please remember to sign in at the reception desk. If the first Thursday is a holiday we meet the second Thursday of the month.
(Directions and maps are on the SMT Information page )

 
The Ring House has a rule of not bringing food into the building from outside. They have asked us to remind our members of that -- and the prohibition against using the rear/side building doors to leave. If you want to know what happens when members use those doors, ask Larry Weiss. Also, please don't leave any trash in the meeting room when you leave. Remember, we are guests, and although we pay for the meeting room we are there at their pleasure.
 

If the weather looks uncertain on a meeting day, we'll try to send an email to all members by 2 PM of that day. Be sure to check your email and this web site (as we have not been able to successfully send email to all of the membership) before heading out to the meeting.
 
 
 
SMT historically has been an organization where members made a majority of the presentations. If this tradition is to continue, we need members willing to make forty-five to sixty minute presentations at future meetings. Please let Dick Messalle know the topic on which you are willing to speak, and when you will be ready to make such a presentation.
 
SMT also is looking for a few good men and women to lead SMT into the new millennium. This means not just holding office but planning meetings and speakers. If you are willing to volunteer your time for either function, contact Dick Messalle.
