So evidently, the info has been there all along.

Right, so the OP saw the average, figured out how she could handle it, and is now hearing that some of the chapters actually have much higher dues than what is listed on the website. If there are chapters that are really way higher than this, they should be listing them individually so people know.
It's really not fair to expect that everyone can a) afford up to $1200 more than the "average" at a moment's notice or b) obtain information via word-of-mouth.
