Please read carefully, there is a lot of important information to make a smooth transition !
While you can do all of this on a smart phone, it is probably a good idea to do this on a PC/Laptop the first time around!!!!!
Best way to do it is to read this page on your smart phone while doing the setup on your laptop. If this is not a hint, I don’t know what is!
This is going to be overkill for some and just enough for others…
This page is a temporary page and is only here to guide you during the transition from a manual process to a more automated process for APL membership renewal and event registration.
This page will disappear after everyone has renewed their annual membership!
What you need to know prior to doing anything:
- As a current APL member, you already have a user profile in the database of this system.
- The membership list has been preloaded from the available APL list.
- There is a password associated with your user profile, but it is not usable. You will change it prior to doing anything else.
Your Username is your first name with the exception of a few people where it is your first name followed by the first letter of your last name.
Here are the exceptions. There are 2 Lucs 2 Erics and 2 Claudes so the following members have the extra letter in the username.
| CLAUDEL | CLAUDE LESELLIER |
| ERICG | ERIC GALINIER |
| LUCV | LUC VACHON |
Once you are a full fledge member of this site, you will be able to log in using your user name or your email address in the username field plus your password.

If you do not find it at first, check your spam folder. Some of these emails have gone to Spam folders during initial testiing.
If you are unable to receive a password reset email by using your username try with your email address. If both attempts fail, your email address in the database may be invalid. Contact me so we can validate your email address, Andre 404-403-9330.
