If you prefer, you can print the paper form, and return it with the proper payment:

If you became an new Ordeal Member in 2009, you will need to pay your 2010 Dues.
Why pay dues?
The biggest reason to pay dues is to remain an active member of the organization. As an active member, you will have the opportunity to become a Brotherhood or Vigil Honor member, help with official service projects, receive our quarterly newsletter “Whippoorwill”, run for official positions, seek leadership opportunities within the Lodge. You should know that your lodge also supports many other activities that are part of our mission to provide service to others. For instance, we partly pay for the expenses to produce the camp promotion guide for this council. We also use your dues to build and maintain ceremonial outfits, pay for camp improvements, and support other programs. All of the programs supported by the Lodge are identified and voted upon by the Key 5 and the Lodge Executive Committee.
Your dues help us remain a vital part of the Northeast Illinois Council. So, please support your Lodge.
