The membership year is based on the anniversary date of the membership. For example, if a member joins GAP in April, that membership will continue until the following April. Annual GAP dues are considered delinquent if they are not paid within 30 days of the renewal deadline. Members who do not pay renewal dues before the renewal deadline will be deleted from GAP’s membership roster and will no longer have access to membership benefits.
Please note that membership dues are non-refundable 30 days after payment has been received. Refunds will not include NFPA dues or any other expenses incurred by GAP in connection with the membership.
GAP IS YOUR ORGANIZATION, AND IT EXISTS FOR THE BENEFIT OF ITS MEMBERS!
