Description

Letter from Edra Bogle to the National Gay Task Force (NGTF) regarding their correspondence with former TGLTF board member Jere Hinckley. Hinckley had indicated that he had worked out a discounted group membership in the NGTF but that was two years prior. Bogle acknowledges that the price has gone up, sends what she has, and says that she will send more if necessary.

Originally formed as the Texas Gay Task Force, the TGLTF was the first statewide gay/lesbian organization in Texas. Organized in 1973 for the purpose of planning annual conferences (until 1990), the TGLTF served as the parent organization for the Lesbian/Gay Democrats of Texas and the Lesbian/Gay Rights Advocates. CCd to Floyd Chapman.

Nearly two years ago, one of our board members, Jere Hinckley, corresponded with you about an initial-year-only joint membership you would share with TGLFT. At that time he indicated to the TGLFT Board that you had agreed to a $15 fee for that initial year; we started advertising it on our own membership forms, and have accumulated six persons who wish to take advantage of the offer.
However, when I came to send them in very belatedly, I realized that your membership price has gone up in the interim, and also that I am only relying on my memory for this, since Jere never passed on any correspondence.
Therefore I am sending in the $15 x 6 or $90 for the people on the list attached, plus an additional $30 for rnewal [sic] of TGLTF’s own membership. If this sum is not acceptable, please notify me and we will make up the difference. Also please let us know if this is an acceptable basis for the future; we hope to initiate an active membership campaign and would hope to handle things much more rapidly in the future, and to attract a number of joint members.
Sincerely,
[Edra’s signature]
