Club Associates urges paying of dues

Pay your 2021 dues. That’s the advice from the Northern Chautauqua County Club Associates.

Whether its a social club, a veterans or fraternal organization, your help and support are needed now. If you feel uncomfortable in these times to attend in person, mail them or have a friend do it for you. Do it soon, as some clubs have a deadline for dues paying, and you don’t want to miss out when things open up again.

The Club Associates has cancelled its December meeting, and all other meetings until further notice.
