Membership

Membership for the 2022-2023 fiscal year is open. Please note, as a result of the Business Meeting, the proposed Bylaws will be sent out for electronic vote. This could result in some membership category changes.

*Due to Membership being on hold, the grace period has been extended. For the 2022-2023 fiscal year, a $5 late fee will be incurred if registration, or re-registration, is completed after July 31st.

OCRID’s membership follows a fiscal calendar and runs concurrent with RID’s membership cycle. Therefore, OCRID memberships run from July 1 - June 30 each year. A late fee of $5 will be incurred if registration, or re-registration, is completed after the deadline of June 30. Registrant is expected to pay dues within 45 days of registering to be a member of OCRID. Director of Finance will send an invoice within 2 business days of registration, as well as a reminder of payment due 10 days before the 45-day deadline. After 45 days of non-payment, the invoice will be deleted and registrant must re-register. Date of registration determines membership rate.

Updated prorated payment system for first time, NEW members:

  • Quarter One: full price

  • Quarter Two: 25% off

  • Quarter Three: 50% off

  • Quarter Four: 75% off

For questions, please email Director of Finance at finance@ocrid.org.
