My clan society's membership is $20/year. That gets 4 e-mail newsletters, lapel pins with the badge printed on them, a little piece of tartan to use as a bookmark, a membership directory, and a little notebook with the by-laws and such inside. It also gets you invited to the AGM, which moves from Games to Games. This past year, our regional convener offered me a Saturday parking pass to a nearby Games. The money also funds scholarships for members who want to study Celtic/Gaelic culture, language and/or arts, such as 'piping, dance, history, etc.
