2025/2026 Memberships Open Late May

Memberships for the 2025/2026 year open and will include new Associate Membership categories.

Please remember:

    • The new form will be available once the 2025/2026 membership period opens

 

Membership Fees Are Pro-Rated Quarterly

VMBSG membership fees are normally calculated based on the quarter in which you join:

  • July–September: Full annual fee (12 months)

  • October–December: 75% of the annual fee (9 months)

  • January–March: 50% of the annual fee (6 months)

  • April–June: 25% of the annual fee (3 months)

However, if you join in the final six weeks of the membership year, you’ll only be invoiced for one month.
