For copies of the Club's bylaws and rules refer to our Information page. A copy of Club rules will be provided upon membership acceptance.
Club meetings are held on the first Thursday each quarter (March, June, September, December) starting at 7:00 PM (except major holidays). After the meeting is called to order dinner will be served for those who wish to partake. After dinner, Club business and announcements take place.
New members are voted on monthly via electronic means by the board in months where there is not a club meeting.
