Guidelines for New Newcomers of Catawba Valley Activities:

·Anyone can start a new activity by spearheading the start-up organization of that activity. Using memberlist can help to find out if there is enough interest to start a new activity.

·All activities must have a member contact person.

·Activity idea must be presented to the board via Activities Coordinator or in person for approval first before launching start-up. The proposal should include the purpose of the activity, a possible day/time of the month which would not interfere with any other major activity, and possible location(s) for activity to be held.

·All activities need to be inclusive for the entire group. If the activity has a restriction on numbers, a waiting list or rotation plan should be developed.

·It is the responsibility of the contact person to notify the Activities Coordinator each month about date, time, and location for inclusion on the calendar and the weekly activity notices.

·Any private activities of Newcomer Members are outside these guidelines and should not be designated as a “Newcomer Activity.”
