			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Effective June 1, 2010, new members and/or renewing members will not receive a t-shirt with their membership dues.  Due to the economic times we are in, and the costs associated with the purchase and mailing of the t-shirts, it is no longer cost-effective for us to continue this practice.  New members will receive one (1) t-shirt at either (i) new member orientation/training, or (ii) on their first search.  Any additional t-shirts will now sell for $20.00.  We hope everyone will continue to support Texas EquuSearch, and understand our reasons for this change.</p>
