Membership Update
Billing resumed August 1. If you e-mailed us at fcbilling@bgparks.org by July 31, and requested that your membership be put on a freeze until Phase 5, or, requested that we cancel your membership, you will not be billed.
If you did not put your membership on a freeze, or cancelled it, you will be billed.
