Annual dues are to be paid at the beginning of the calendar year. To be issued a ballot for elections (which take place near the end of the year), your annual dues must be paid by October 31. To encourage prompt payment of dues, the Active membership fee increases from $20 to $35 after April 30 (by postmark).

NEW members joining on August 1st or later will be counted as active immediately, and will not have to renew until after the end of the following year. (Example: a new membership started in September, 2024 will expire December 31, 2025).

We realize that many members renew their memberships when they register their lambs born in that year, which may take place at any time during the year. Be advised that existing members who wait until late in the year to register lambs and/or renew their membership will not be renewing for the coming year as well; they will still owe dues in January for the upcoming year. (Example: I wait until November of 2024 to register my 2024 lambs and renew my membership; in January of 2025 I still will owe my 2025 dues). AND they will be paying a increased membership fee after April 30.

The above does not reflect any changes in BLU membership policy; it simply spells it out. Any questions about the status of your membership below should be directed to the secretary/ treasurer, Margaret Van Camp, 810-814-3408, info(AT)bflsheep.com

Please be aware that there is a lag of about a month between the receipt of your renewal at the registrar and the updating of the membership list shown below. This list should be accurate as of the date specified.

Also, the list below includes all members that have paid their dues for 2024, as well as those who have also paid for 2025. After March 31, any member that has not paid their 2025 dues may be removed from the list.

Please remember there is a delay of up to 60 days for your paid membership to show on the list below.

Lifetime Members

The following breeders have been instrumental in the establishment, promotion and growth of the Bluefaced Leicester breed and registry (established in 2010) in the US. In recognition of their commitment to the breed and BLU, they have been awarded a Lifetime membership. They are no longer breeding BFLs (unless listed in the Active Membership List further down), but have left an enduring mark on the US flock.
