Why a Membership Fee?

• This is an active organization. Each of the board members gives their time freely to make this a great organization. To date, CARCNET has managed to conduct its activities without asking individuals to provide any monetary support. However, in order to be a more self-sufficient conservation group, our board of directors has chosen to establish a membership base.  

• Membership fees will help to further our goals of promoting research on reptiles and amphibians.  

• From the membership fee, $2 from the student membership and $4 from non-student membership will be set aside in a fund for a student award for the best paper presented at our annual meeting.  Please see our Awards page for more information.

• Your membership will also support the publication and mailing of our newsletter The Boreal Dip Net which provides information about herpetology and reptile and amphibian conservation in Canada.

• Our membership fee is only $10 for students and $20 for non-students.
