If a person does numerous CBCs should that person be asked to contribute $5 for each count he/she participates in? Wouldn't a one time payment suffice?

The charge is for overhead to manage the CBC data base system and provide participants an annual CBC report. NAS is a non-profit organization, not a tax base company. It cost money to accomplish things, and all things have to be paid for some way.
