Our registration procedure is changing for new and renewing memberships for the year starting in June 2016. The AGO Headquarters has introduced the process of ONCARD registration and our Chapter is going to observe this process starting June 2016.

RENEWING REGULAR, SPECIAL and STUDENT MEMBERSHIPS:

Before you click on the link provided, make sure you know what your username and password are. If you are not sure where this information is look at the address label of The American Organist you should have been receiving with your membership.

Your username is the first letter of your first name followed by your last name, with no space in between. (For example, Jane Doe’s username would be JDoe). Do not include apostrophes or hyphens. If your last name has a space, leave the space. (For example, Dick Van Dyke’s username would be (DVan Dyke).

Directly above your name on the label is a line which has 3 groupings of numbers with the date being the third grouping on the RIGHT of the label. Your membership ID (identification) are the digits found in the middle of this grouping, to the LEFT of the date. This number can vary in the number of digits. I joined later so have 5 digits as my identification. Those who joined earlier have less digits in their membership ID. Use this as your PASSWORD.
