Registration
Here are a few things to keep in mind...

  • Passwords were not transferrable to the new software, so you will have to create a new one if you have not already done so. 
  • Click the "Member Center Sign In" link under the top banner. Do this BEFORE you click the REGISTER button. This will take you to the Member Center.
  • Click the “reset password” link and watch for an email with details on how to change it. If it doesn’t arrive, contact the KBC office.
  • Once you receive the password reset email, login as instructed. You will see your name in the Welcome window under the top banner if you are logged in successfully. 
  • As with the old system, you must login to the software in order to access member pricing. If you don’t login, you will only be able to access non-member fees.
