Thank you for being a member the Vermont Association of Broadcasters. Your dues are vitally important for us to accomplish our mission; to unite, provide resources and opportunities for growth and advocate for all free, over-the-air broadcast television and radio stations operating in Vermont.

Our new fiscal year starts July 1st, which means it is time to renew your membership. We ask that you remit payment no later than September 30, 2020, but we do understand the economic challenges created by COVID-19. Therefore, if you are able to pay in the next 90 days, we really appreciate it, but if not, please email vab@vab.org or call (802) 233-0296 and we will work something out.

90% of VAB’s funding comes from the NCSA messages you air, so thank you for participating! However, NCSA funds cannot be used to pay for Political Action, so membership dues are what ensure your best interests are advocated for when State and Federal Government proposes legislation that affects our industry.
