This is the process for new members:
- Potential member fills out a Membership_Agreement
- Potential member signs it and gives it to the Board Secretary
- Board Secretary emails the announce@ mailing list with the names of the new members
- Board Secretary emails the rest of the Board with the name + email address
- A Board member (currently the President) fills out a PAD (pre-authorized debit) agreement as much as possible and emails it to the potential member
- Potential member brings a void cheque and completed PAD agreement to a meeting
- A Board member (currently the Vice President) drops off this paperwork at the Bank
- At (or near) the end of the two-week waiting period, a Board member (currently the Treasurer) gives a key to the new member and records that they have a key
We tried to make this as simple as possible without missing any vital steps. If the member chooses to pay with cash or cheque instead of a PAD, then instead of the void cheque they can bring cash.
A note to new members: we don't store your pre-authorized debit information at all - we hand it to the bank, and they store it.
