& Shag Club Membership Guidelines |
The Ocean Drive Pavilion Social and Shag Club is
open to all new members having been approved by
board member(s) once a completed application and
membership fee is received. At this time new members
will be sent a welcome letter, be placed in our
mailing and email database to start receiving
newsletters and club news.
The following rules are from our bylaws:
Section 6. Membership
Renewal and Termination
A. Renewal. The
Club’s calendar year is January 1 through December
31. The Membership
Chairperson shall give each member at
least 45 days advance notice of the approaching
renewal.
A member who is in good standing shall be renewed as
a member for the next twelve (12) calendar
months upon payment of the annual membership dues
for the next year, provided the payment is
delivered to the Membership Chairperson no later
than December 31. Upon the timely payment of
renewal dues to the Membership Chairperson, said
member automatically shall be a member of the
Club for the ensuing year. There is a late fee of
$5.00 for renewals received after December 31.
B. Termination.
The membership of any member of the Club who fails
to renew his or her
membership in the Club as provided above shall be
automatically terminated.
C. Reinstatement.
A former member whose membership has terminated
automatically for non-
payment of dues will be reinstated upon delivery of
a membership application form together with
payment plus late payment penalty of the annual
membership dues to the Membership Chairperson.
Section 7. Disciplinary
Action
A. Censure, Suspension or Expulsion. For
good cause, the Board may censure a member, may
suspend a member, or may expel a member. For
purposes of this section, “good cause” shall include
assault behavior against any person; disorderly
conduct tending to promote a breach of the peace;
open and notorious illegal or grossly immoral public
conduct; and any other personal conduct adverse to
the best interests and purposes of the Club.
B. Disciplinary
Procedures. In considering and/or
implementing the censure, suspension or expulsion of
a member of the Club, the Board must provide the
member concerned with written notice that the Board
is considering a disciplinary action at least two
weeks prior to the Board Meeting at which the
disciplinary action will be considered and will also
advise the member concerned of his or her right to
appear before the Board to respond to said
complaint. When the disciplinary issue has been
raised by a member or members of the Club not
serving on the Board, the Board alone has the sole
discretion to proceed to a hearing, to dismiss the
case, or to take any other action that the Board
finds to be in the best interest of the Club.
C. Voting Requirements
for Disciplinary Actions. The censure,
suspension or expulsion of a member requires an
affirmative vote of not less than two-thirds (2/3),
of the Board of Directors, with at least eight (8)
Board Members voting for said censure, suspension or
expulsion. The vote of the Board to censure, suspend
or expel any member shall be final.
D. Re-Admission of
Expelled Member. A member who has been
expelled from membership in the Club may reapply for
membership at any time after twelve (12) calendar
months following the date he or she was expelled.
The Board may accept or reject the application,
and/or the Board may set conditions for the member’s
readmission to membership in the club. |
