Description
Thank you for choosing to become a member of USCS—we’re happy to have you on board. There are several types of membership are described below, and you can either join through the website (some exceptions) or by mail via paper application.
CATEGORIES OF MEMBERSHIP
REGULAR MEMBERS – receive the monthly USCS LOG and all other benefits of membership.
LOG BY FIRST CLASS MAIL MEMBERS – for additional fee, in addition to all other member benefits, you will receive the printed LOG by first class mail.
eLOG MEMBERSHIP – receive monthly LOG via email, and all other benefits of membership.
YOUTH MEMBERS – if you are under the age of 18 the dues are reduced (half), and you will receive the USCS LOG and other membership benefits.
Note: For those who live outside the U.S., due to the high cost of
postage, most choose to become eLOG members. However, we can arrange to
have the printed version of the LOG sent internationally at either the
periodic rate, or first class rate. You’ll need to contact us.
