The management committee for awhile has been discussing how to deal with any members and/or coaches that do not follow the requirements of the club when it comes to use of the grounds regarding use of keys, allowing non-members to ride on the grounds, use of uninsured coaches as a few examples. Below is a proposed new By Law. This will be voted on at the June meeting – Wednesday 12th June at 6.30pm. Members are welcome to attend if they have any input or thoughts.
• 1st warning – verbal
• 2nd warning – written
• 3rd warning – At the discretion of the management committee. This penalty can range from loss of key for a period of time to deferring membership for a certain period of time, depending on the severity of the infringement.
• Committee to keep a record
ON PROPOSED NEW BY LAW AS BELOW
