Mary Rhodes recently posted this to CGP...
 If you have signed up for the NSC, but have not joined NASPA yet, you 
 must bring cash to Dayton to pay your membership fee of $30 cash
 (no checks) on Friday, July 31, registration day.
 You can check to see if you are a member yet at:
 http://scrabbleplayers.org/cgi-bin/members.pl
 We'd appreciate it a lot if you would join before you come to Dayton. 
 This would make it much easier.
