LIFETIME - Want to make lifetime commitment to NACD and avoid those annual payment reminders? Make a one-time payment of $1000 and become a Lifetime Member, entitling you to all the above benefits as well as:
- Recognition at the Annual Meeting
- An personalized certificate for your home or office.
- A personalized NACD gift

STUDENT - For the first time, NACD is now also offering student memberships at the low annual rate of $15 per student. This membership entitles the student member to receive a membership pin and subscriptions to NACD’s The Resource and weekly eNotes. If you know a high school or college-aged student that is interested in building his or her resume and participating in a national conservation organization, the student membership is a great deal. Or if your conservation district would like to recognize conservation-minded students for their good work, purchase a student membership in their name, and honor them at your next district event!
