CSBA Membership Application
CSBA offers two different categories of membership: Voting and Non-Voting
Voting Membership is for commercial beekeepers. Voting members have the ability to cast votes on important policies and activities of the organization at the CSBA Annual Meeting in November including, the annual budget and changes in by-laws or articles of incorporation. Additionally, they are entitled to elect the slate of officers and representation to the board, as well as review proposed research projects to be funded.
Annual Dues: $300/year
Non-Voting Members can be any person interested in the welfare of the beekeeping industry including hobbyists, suppliers, associations, researchers and others. Non-voting members may attend CSBA meetings, but are not authorized to vote. Non-voting members are entitled to all other benefits of membership.
Annual Dues: $100/year.
Membership Fees are due on an annual basis. CSBA’s membership year runs from November 1 to October 31.
Membership renewal invoices are mailed to members in August in order to give voting members plenty of time to renew before the Annual Business Meeting that takes place in November at Convention. Voting members must have paid dues 24 hours before the Annual Business Meeting in order to vote. New memberships that are purchased after August will be applied to the new membership year.
