Message-ID: <2b2a40b60812031723x2b7208e6gc9fa6be43bcab397@mail.gmail.com> Hi everyone, Just a gentle reminder that now is a good time to renew your French-Canadian Heritage Society of Michigan membership for 2009. Renewing your membership allows us to continue to publish our first-rate journal, *Michigan's Habitant Heritage*. In order to avoid late fees, when mailing your dues make sure the envelope is postmarked by *January 15*. Visit the society's website at http://fchsm.habitant.org/Membership.html to print out a membership renewal form. Is there someone of French-Canadian heritage on your gift list who is hard to buy for? Consider giving that lucky person a gift membership. It's the gift that keeps on giving for an entire year! Interested in making a donation to the society? Since we are a 501 (c)(3) charitable organization, your donation may be tax-deductible. Remember though, that dues and purchases do NOT fall into the donation category. Upon request, a letter acknowledging your donation will be sent to you. Visit the society's website at http://fchsm.habitant.org/Donations.html to learn more. All membership renewals and donations should be sent to French-Canadian Heritage Society of Michigan P.O. Box 1900 Royal Oak, Michigan 48068-1900 Thanks for your continued support!
