We count on your voluntary dues

Are we worth your dues?  We sure think so. Just take a look at the next column for a small peek at what we do and how we work to keep our community informed, engaged and in touch.

Our dues, which are completely voluntary, begin at only $35 for an entire calendar year. MANY pay more because of the value they get from having a strong, vocal association working on their bahalf.  Help keep us strong: Visit the PPNA Projects  tab to see how we engage to make our neighborhood special, inviting, welcoming and FABULOUS. We can only do it with your support. Our dues year begins January 1, and all memberships expire on December 31. Keep your dues current so you don't miss out on important information.

The pandemic changed how PPNA keeps community informed 

As many of you will remember, in the days of old, PPNA would host an annual community meeting in late January at Chabot Space and Science Center.  With the pandemic, we switched our format to Virtual Town Hall format, mostly on Zoom. It turns out virtual meetings bring significant advantages:

• Allows us to produce more meetings and events. By spreading out the topics and speakers, we can take a deeper dive into the issues we care most about.

• Favored by members with small children who would need child care to attend in person

• Favored by our speakers who can Zoom in even if they're out of town or home for the evening

• Saves $2,000 in rental and other facility costs

• Saves hours and hours of PPNA time setting up the in-person event with the expo, wine and food stations, registration table

• Meeting tapes are available shortly after the meeting for those unable attend on show day

But we know how much our members value in-person gatherings. Starting in 2022, we launched our first ever Family Fun Day Picnic at Lake Temescal. The event brings people together of all ages for an old fashioned barbecue, kid-friendly games and adult socializing.
