Become a Sine Aqua Mortis Life Member!

Sine Aqua Mortis = “Without Water, Death”

Have you noticed that the ADBSS has listed, in addition to our honored Life Members, a section for “Sine Aqua Mortis” Life Members? If you haven’t seen this listing, take a look at the Sine Aqua Mortis Life Member page on our website.
Your dues power waterhole development, sheep transplants, habitat protection, and outreach.

You may be wondering, just what is a Sine Aqua Mortis Life Member? Glad you asked! Sine Aqua Mortis is the brainchild of ADBSS Past President Brad Remfrey. As some of our board members and past presidents were considering how to raise funds for sheep management and conservation, Brad advanced the idea that we develop an enhanced level of life membership. This enhanced life membership would allow current life members, and anyone who wants to join as an enhanced life member, to show their dedication to sheep management in an essential and material way. Since ADBSS is a 501(c)(3) organization, the payment for the Sine Aqua Mortis life membership would be a tax-deductible benefit for the member as well. The Society is also considering ideas for the funds raised from Sine Aqua Mortis Life Members, including developing a water fund strictly for supplying and resupplying sheep waters in desert habitat.

If you are already a life member, you can upgrade to a Sine Aqua Mortis Life Membership for a one-time payment of $500. If you are not yet a life member, but would like to join as a Sine Aqua Mortis Life Member, the costs are:

For your membership, you will receive a commemorative plaque, be listed in the Ram’s Horn in a special section, and enjoy the satisfaction of knowing that your funds go to “keep sheep on the mountain.
