What the Numbers Mean

Regular Dues

This is the total amount of dues that have been collected during the current Lodge Year. Below this amount is the total number of members who have paid their Lodge dues.

Prepaid Dues

This is the total amount of dues that have been prepaid during the current Lodge Year.Below this amount is the total number of members who have prepaid their Lodge dues.

When April 1 date occurs all prepaid dues will go into regular dues and prepaid will be reset to zero. Think of it this way: all prepaid dues are restricted funds. On April 1 these prepaid dues are transferred into the Lodge operating fund and can then be accessed. Thus the prepaid dues are considered regular funds and this dialog during the Lodge year is the cumulative amount of dues collected during the present Lodge year.
