Just a reminder that the services provided, either directly or indirectly, are of higher valuethan the total amount of your dues. Let’s take a look at the Building Industry Association (BIA) of Stark & East CentralOhio dues and what services are provided.The total dues amount that the BIA of Stark & East Central Ohio currently invoices Builder members is 610 (includesdinner meetings for one).
