It’s getting to be that time of year when renewals are being sent our membership and we will begin to see National sending the chapter portion to the NorthShore checking account.
It’s delightful to see renewals from Rich Spantikow, Richard Spears, and Robert Ward. Any many thanks to Richard Spears for his donation to our chapter.
Our checking account currently has a balance of $5,927.56. That is up because I transferred $3,000 from our saving account into checking. For the past few months, Chase had been charging us a $12 service fee. When we moved the big sums of money out of the checking into the savings account, the checking account went below the threshold that waived the $12 service fee. After a discussion with our banker, Chase refunded the $12 fees and have dropped the minimum balance down to $1,200.
The check to National for $200 cleared this month, as did an expense of about $146 for paper goods (plates, cups, etc. to be used at upcoming receptions).
Our balances are:
Checking $5.927.56
Scholarship $5,300.66
Savings $32,007.29
Total $43,235.51
I look forward to seeing more renewals in the coming months!
