Board/Chair Comp Memberships Info

The LRCC Board has adopted the following policies to provide clarity to Complimentary Memberships given to Board Members and Committee Chairs. All positions are volunteer-based, the Complimentary Membership is the Club’s way of saying Thank You for the time put in to the job.

Board Members (Taken from LRCC Board Minutes October 7, 2014):
Each year of a board member’s term, each board member will receive 50% discount off of their membership.

If, at the end of each year, the budget has been managed per the bylaws (elections, meetings, and budgets all per bylaws and state laws), and there are no objections from a majority of members present during the annual meeting, then each existing Board member will be entitled to an additional 50% off the following year membership.

Examples for the purposes of clarity:

  • Board member voted into office March 2015
  • Board member receives 50% off of 2015 membership fee
  • During annual Board meeting in March 2016, Board presents results of 2015 books and operations.  If members present at general meeting agree with a simple majority that elections were properly conducted, meetings were properly held, and budget was handled per bylaws, existing Board is entitled to 50% off of 2016 membership fee.
