Attendance: A good Rotarian attends every meeting possible and makes up those thatare missed through necessity. Membership is automatically forfeited by missing four (4) consecutive meetings without make-up or by failing to attend at least 60% of all meetings during any six (6) month period.
New Members: Member presents a written proposal to the Secretary, or any member of the board, or the Membership Development Committee. At this point the proposal should be confidential and does not require the proposer’s consent or prior attendance at any meeting. When the necessary board approval is secured, the proposer is notified and is then encouraged to invite the proposee to visit the club. If the proposee is interested in becoming a member, the proposer informs the Secretary who arranges withe the Information Committee a meeting with both prospect and sponsor for instruction in the history and mission of Rotary. The entire membership is informed at this point and given an opportunity to note in writing any objections. The board then elects or declines and the proposer is notified of the action.
