WHEATON LIONS MEMBERS RESPONSIBILITY AGREEMENT

The Wheaton Lions Club is an organization that thrives on the active involvement and participation of its members. Members have various financial and other responsibilities. This policy outlines the Club’s expectation of members.

 

MEMBER RESPONSIBILITY:

1. MEMBERSHIP
Club membership fees are currently $135 per quarter and reflect payments for lunch, Lions operational expenses and dues to Lions International. Quarterly fees are bill in advance until a member formally resigns by letter or orally to the secretary or president. At that time, a final billing will be rendered. One time initiation fees are $200 (which includes your first quarter fees).

 

2. PARTICIPATION
All members are encouraged to make our luncheons an important part of their weekly scheduling, to physically participate in at least one of our major fundraising events during the year (Candy Day, Reindeer Run, or Golf Outing), and become an active member of at least one of our committees.

 

3. CANDY DAY
Candy Day is a major Wheaton Lions Foundation fund raiser and Lions International event. Donation collection at various location throughout Wheaton is a physical requirement of all members. On Candy Day, members are expected to spend two hours collecting donations at assigned locations. Those not participating will be assessed a personal donation equal to the then current expected average member collection, currently $125, which will be added to their next quarterly billing.

 

4. WEEKLY LUNCH CLEAN UP
All members are encouraged to help bring food to the table. New members will be expected to help each time they attend for the first (6/12) months of membership.

 

5. RESIGNATION
Your financial responsibilities remain after resignation until paid in full.
