The Maryland Sheep Breeders Association (MSBA), in an effort to provide
information concerning the sheep industry, would like to invite you to become
a member.
MSBA is an active organization, sponsoring the Maryland Sheep & Wool
Festival, Maryland Wool Pool, Sheep Shearing School, Maryland Sheep News,
various youth activities, and a variety of educational functions. The Maryland
Sheep News is sent to all MSBA members and contains information on upcoming
events, educational articles and advertising. The Maryland Sheep & Wool
Festival, held annually the first full weekend in May, has become known as one
of the premier events of this type in the nation.
As a sheep enthusiast, your help is needed to successfully complete the
many events scheduled during the year. Volunteers are always welcome on the
many committees. If you would like to be involved with your fellow sheep
breeders in promoting the Maryland Sheep Industry, while educating yourself
and others, you are invited to join the Maryland Sheep Breeders Association.
The annual membership/subscription fee is $25. If you take your wool to the
Maryland Wool Pool, membership in MSBA is deducted on wool sales over $40.
The membership year runs from October through September. Dues for membership received prior to June 1, 2008 will be accepted as paid through September 30, 2008. Dues received June 1, 2008 and later (including dues deducted at the Maryland Wool Pool) will be accepted as paid through September 30, 2009.
Make checks payable to: Maryland Sheep Breeders Association, Inc.
There will be a $25 charge on any checks returned for insufficient funds.
