<p>Effective March 1, 2021 PACIM will return to a monthly dues renewal cycle. This decision reflects the continuing financial effects of the coronavirus crisis, which has so far led to the cancellation of Festival of Nations for 2021, as well as a rent increase for our Riverplace facility that also takes effect March 1.</p>



<p>PACIM’s membership committee felt the cash flow benefits of a return to staggered renewals offset other considerations, and so the Board of Directors approved a conversion to PACIM’s former system unanimously at its February 4 meeting. Members who would have renewed in January and February will now have memberships that expire at the end of March. All other members will return to their previous renewal cycle month.</p>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Act soon and benefit</strong></h4>



<p>In appreciation for your support of PACIM, the first 50 new and renewing members between now and June 1 will automatically receive a free one-year gift membership in the American Council for Polish Culture. (Ordinarily $5). This will entitle you to receive ACPC”s newsletter Polish Heritage.</p>



<p>If you have questions, please contact treasurer@pacim.org. We apologize for any inconvenience this change in policy may cause.</p>
