IOLI Officers aren't paid for their time, that's why they call us volunteers. *big grin* Seriously, the money simply isn't there to pay us. Close to 80% of the money from dues goes directly to pay for the production and mailing of the Bulletin and Handbook. A good portion of the rest goes to mailing expenses and software for Membership. (Which is why, Tamara, you got your renewal email, and since you dutifully sent in your form, I didn't send you a snail-mail follow-up like I do to people with email addresses who I don't hear from by close to the deadline.) I guess you just have to be dedicated to advancing the cause of lace making.
