Family membership has the same benefits as Individual Membership and covers the same period but offers a reduced fee for others in the same family (defined as living at the same address) to become members.  The first Family member (Primary Family Member) pays the full $55.00 fee with each subsequent family member paying $25.00 for the same benefits. 

What is a "Family"?

Any group of people living at the same address can join under a family membership. For example, parent and child, two people who simply live in the same home.

There is no limit to the number of people that can be part of a family membership. One person is designated as the Primary member and the other(s) is a secondary member. Secondary family members have all the same membership benefits as a primary or individual member.

Associate membership is ONLY for people whose primary membership is through another VADA Chapter. For example, if your primary chapter is Charlottesville, but you want to take advantage of VADA/Nova events, discounts, awards, etc, you may join Nova under the Associate category.

If you submit an Associate membership, your primary membership in another VADA Chapter will be verified.
