I am wondering how many of you are involved in your local opticianry organization. Does anyone have any numbers in regards to membership dues vs. licensed opticians for any given state?

What kind of activities or promotions have worked well for increasing membership> education days, fundraisers etc....?

Please give some feedback.

Thank you!

PS: if you are not involved in your state society, what prevents you from doing so? ex. Cost, time, etc......
