APPLICATIONS FOR MEMBERSHIP

At the September 22 Board Meeting, the MCKC Board of Directors agreed by Consent Agenda to "fast track" Members that have been waiting for approvals during the past few months - when the club has not been meeting due to concerns over COVID-19.

The Traditional Approval Process is:
  1. Membership Chair receives the Application and Dues.
  2. Membership Chair presents Application to the BOD.
  3. Board approves application (or not).
  4. First Reading During General Membership Meeting.
  5. Application for Membership is brought up for a vote at the following General Meeting (2nd presentation). 75% of the members present must approve in order to elect the applicant. 
The Fast Track Version will look like this:
  1. The Membership Chair has received Applications.
  2. These applicants are at different stages in the traditional approval process.
  3. The Board Reviewed the Applications
  4. Each of the Applicants is listed below. 
  5. Each Member should review each of these Prospects and provide any relevant feedback to Membership Chair, Marjorie Riddle Watson. (link to her email in name)
  6. These Prospects will be read at the NEXT GENERAL MEETING, and a vote will be taken - which will occur October 19 or 21 at the Porch at Rudino's -- more information to come.
On 5/26/2021, the Board voted: 
If a former MCKC member wishes to re-join, they are to submit an application and dues which will be reviewed by the Board.  Following approval by the Board, the application will be read at the next general meeting and a vote will be taken.  (This will skip one reading of the application).
