A great idea with some good leadership.

However the membership schedule seems a little harsh compared to the

industry groups I belong to.
AZH, Association of Zoological Horticulture is $100 USD for commercial
memberships. IA Irrigation Association membership is $55 USD. Now I
understand the need to raise funds, but $200 for a small business and
$500
for a corporate membership, is excessive for a newly forming
organization
IMHO.

I completely agree.  I was excited about the announcement and what I read on the website, that is until I looked at membership fees.  I gross WAY less than $1 million US and cannot justify spending $200 in this fashion.  My professional and industry associations have annual membership fees ranging from $60 to $150 and I'm dropping out of the $150 organization as the benefits are far less than the cost.  In my fairly recent student days, $50 would have been prohibitive as well.
