IPaWGS Supporting Chapter - Add an existing club
The simplicity of IPaWGS is that an existing club can become a “Supporting Chapter” and retain their total autonomy. The only provisions to become a Supporting Chapter:
The club fully supports 100% of the IPaWGS mission statement: “To Promote, Protect and Advance the Pond, Water Garden and Fish Keeping Hobbies.”
-
A majority of the club’s members (50.1% or greater) agrees to financially contribute to the support of IPaWGS and the IPPCA Legislative Action Team (LAT) with a contribution of $15.00 per year per individual membership or $25.00 per year per household membership.
-
Contact information on all participating club members, including e-mail addresses will be supplied to the IPaWGS Executive Committee with quarterly updates. This information will not be shared with third parties by IPaWGS and IPPCA.
-
The club remains the same and un-changed in its officers, format of business and bylaws.
-
The IPaWGS Executive Committee reserves the right to review, accept, decline or non-renew chapters as it deems fit for the Good of the Society.
-
Once an existing club has met the above requirements, they automatically become a chapter of IPaWGS and may incorporate and use the IPaWGS name and logo within their club’s name or materials if they so choose.
-
Only fully funded individual or household participants of the existing club will be allowed to receive IPaWGS member benefits.
