Introduction
This page has guidelines that go beyond our club's Constitution & By-laws and into the territory of social behavior.
Upon joining our club, new members need to know from the beginning what sort of social behavior is acceptable and what sort is not. New members also need to have a general idea of actions that they can expect to be taken by the club should they choose to flaunt our behavioral policy.
Similarly, existing and even long-time members need to periodically remind themselves of how to conduct themselves in in a way that keeps our beloved club in harmony and inviting.
