My apologies to everyone, I hadn’t realized this email went out when a membership was cancelled.

This was me canceling everyone’s membership on the OLD system. Rest assured all appropriate discounts will apply and invites for this month’s member event will still go out if you actively signed up in the new system. No membership fees will be charged until November 1st.

Thank you to all of you for your continued patience with the transition to the new Point of Sale system.

If you have not signed in to the new system please do so to make sure all of our information is correct.
