The BC Historical Federation (BCHF) is pleased to announce that over the next two months we are upgrading our membership management system from Wild Apricot to Membee.

This change is part of our ongoing effort to save costs, improve the member experience, streamline administration, and provide tools for registrations, renewals, and communications.

What This Means for Members

• A modern and user-friendly member portal
• Simplified membership renewals and account management
• New mobile-friendly website design
• New directory listing options for your heritage organiznation

Transition Timeline

We are following a phased rollout to ensure a smooth transition:

• May 31, 2026 
  If your membership is expiring, this is the last day to renew your subscription or membership so that you receive the summer issue of British Columbia History Magazine.

• June 5–June 17, 2026
  Data transfer from current system to new system and internal review. Member portal access is closed and no self-serve renewals or subscription purchases are possible at this time. Please email members@bchistory.ca to manage or update your account during this period. 

• June 17, 2026
  New membership system goes live, membership and subscription services reopen.

• June 22, 2026
  Members will receive an email about how to access the new member portal, and renewal emails are sent out. 

What You Need to Do

• You will receive an email with instructions to access your account
• You will be prompted to confirm or update your information
• Renewal notices will follow through the new system
