This may involve submitting some sort of application, which perhaps must be approved by the board or membership, paying dues and so forth. Whatever may be involved, as soon as membership is attained, the full rights of membership (such as attending meetings and voting) are in effect. Any exceptions would need to be included in your rules. Check them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Mervosh Posted December 14, 2012 at 05:59 PM Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 at 05:59 PM The tag on your post, Guest Patricia Baxter, asks if there is a standard definition for a member in good standing. New to the 11th Edition of RONR, there is - See RONR (11th ed), p. 6, footnote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
