I called the athletic fund office and they told me that you have to donate no more than 2 months after your anniversary date or your status becomes inactive until they receive your donation. You can make a partial donation and then the balance in December if you want but have to donate something to remain active. Therefore, we have had an inactive status from June to December for the last 10 yrs. Am I the only idiot who didn't know this? I wonder how many points we've lost over the years because of this.
