| | Check the appropriate membership category with the appropriate amount of years. Consider a TWO YEAR membership as it has COST SAVINGS! Also, check the appropriate box indicating whether you have previously been a PVDA member. This saves time when updating the database and will prevents duplication errors. Please PRINT all necessary information so that it is easy to read.

| | Family members are listed if applying for a family membership. The primary member in a family membership is recognized by USDF and receives the USDF group membership number. To have additional family members receive the USDF group membership is $10 extra (over the general family membership cost) per additional family member for one year OR $20 per additional family member for two years. |
| | If you already have a USDF number, include it in the application. This is how PVDA coordinates information with USDF. |
| | If you belong to more than one GMO (USDF Group Member Organization), indicate your primary organization. You can contact USDF directly to obtain a refund for dues that you have paid for as your non-primary GMO. If you want to become a participating member with USDF, you can receive a discount on USDF dues if you are a member of a GMO. |
| | Yes! As with any successful organization, it is only as good as it’s volunteers! YOU can make a difference. From helping out at a schooling show to becoming a PVDA board member. Plus, with most volunteer positions, you receive a volunteer certificate worth $10 towards your next membership dues or schooling show entry! And volunteering also makes you eligible for the PVDA year-end awards. Volunteering is always a win/win situation!
|
| | The PVDA membership year runs from January 1 thru December 31 of each year. You can renew as early as October and this will avoid any delay with the last minute rush. All renewals are taken in the order received and have a usual turn around time of two weeks plus the time it takes for mailing. BEFORE signing up for a show, please verify that you are a current member. Don’t wait until it’s too late! |
| | Email correspondence is preferred at membership@pvda.org as there is less room for error when information is written down. If you leave a voice mail, please pronounce your name and phone number clearly, spell your last name, and repeat your phone number. A very brief description of your concern is all that is necessary. |
| | Your e-mail address is important. PVDA sends out E-News announcements of interest to all members. Please put your ENTIRE web address, including the domain name information (msn.com, aol.com, etc). |
