Regular Membership
The Canadian Naval Divers Association (CNDA) was
founded in January 1981 at Halifax, Nova Scotia. It cannot exist without
annual dues to take care of the administrative and functional aspects of
the association. The CNDA is strictly a non-profit organization that
exists solely to serve the needs as set put in the association charter.
In order to maintain "membership in good standing" status, annual dues
in the amount of $10.00 per annum are required. They are due at the
beginning of the calendar year and members have 90 days to make payment
to maintain their active status. Payment is to be direct to either the
local Chapter Treasurer or directly to the National Treasurer and can be
made for multiple years if so desired. Contact information for these
individuals can be found on the
CNDA Executive page. Once payment has been received, a master
membership list will be updated and available for the association
executive to monitor and review.
Membership comes with several entitlements and
benefits which include:
 |
Reduced rates at all annual
events; |
 |
Voting privileges for
association matters; |
 |
Inclusion on the mailing and
notification list for the quarterly newsletter "Dipper Digest"; |
