5.6 Ending the Membership Extension

[Vladimir Drkulec]

Anyone who had a valid CFC membership on Mar 1, 2020 received an 8 month extension to their membership. I think our best offer to our members would be to sell memberships, until further notice, with a bonus of 6 months added on - in other words a regular membership would be for 18 months. Financially, I don't think simply extending the memberships again is a good plan.

The new normal for 2021 is online chess and in-person matches or 4 player round-robins.

I don't think we can really afford to discount at this point. Most of the memberships sold will be people that are playing in CFC online events. We would really have to reduce costs and our costs are very lumpy. FIDE fees and salary. We need to survive until everyone is able to get vaccinated.
