I just joined or renewed my CSDEA membership. Where is my USDF member number?

CSDEA is a Group Member Organization (GMO) of the USDF, so all CSDEA members also receive Group Membership with the USDF. Depending on when you renew or join, it may be anywhere from 1-6 weeks before your USDF membership is processed in their system. We send our roster and dues to USDF monthly, typically around the 15th. USDF has to receive our emailed roster and mailed check, process everything in their systems, then send out your membership card. If you are signing up for a recognized show, you can write "pending" where the forms ask for your USDF number, and bring proof of your membership to the show secretary on the weekend of the show.

How do I log into this website?

On a desktop computer, look in the upper right-hand corner of the screen for the "Member Login" link. If you've forgotten your username and/or password, you will be guided through resetting those. On a mobile device, the menu bar at the bottom of your screen has a key icon with "Login" underneath -- click there.

I have another question.

If we don't have an answer for you, we'll find it! Check out our contacts page to get started. If you're not sure who to reach out to, start with our membership coordinator or our president.
