SALEM HUNTING CLUB POINTS SYSTEM
Membership points may be earned by any of the following methods:
· Attending the monthly membership meetings – ˝ point each.
· Any work done for the club – 1 point per hour.
· The sales of raffle tickets – ˝ point per book of five(5) tickets.
· Other points may be earned by various means that the membership approves (votes) at any regular meeting.
Each member must earn ten (10) points per year or pay $7.50 per unearned point at the end of the clubs fiscal year.
Members that are not required to earn the ten (10) points are as follows: Club Officers, Trustees, and Life Members.
There are two (2) ways to qualify as a life member:
· To be voted a life member by the club’s membership.
· If your years of age + years of membership = ninety (90) or more.
Any member unable to earn his/her points because of bad health or circumstances beyond their control will not be held accountable for the required points. These cases will be reviewed by the officers and they will decide whether the circumstances are justified.
The Points Officer is responsible for recording points earned for all members. It is the responsibility of each member to report to the Points Officer all points earned and how they were earned.
Points are to be earned by the end of the club’s fiscal year. A thirty (30) day grace period will be given to any member not earning enough points for the year so that he/she may earn them during that grace period.
A prorated system is used for new members joining other than at the beginning of the fiscal year.
· 1 point required per month left in the fiscal year.
Any member failing to accumulate the required points or failing to pay the $7.50 per unearned point in the year and during the grace period will lose his/her membership.
