Membership Process
Member:
Membership is a privilege extended to Friends of UKTS who have show a deep and longstanding commitment to the Society.
To become a Member an individual needs to be a regularly attending Friend of UKTS for at least a year, often longer.
Friends are good candidates who have become a familiar in the community ( people can easily put a face with a name) and have demonstrated investment in the culture and stewardship of UKTS.
Friends of UKTS are invited to membership by an existing Member.
Then there is a year long process where prospective Members come to Spring and Fall Work Bees and learn Member jobs.
Once those steps are completed Members must be approved by a majority vote of the Society’s Board of Directors.
The whole process takes 2 years at the very minimum.
Once approved yearly dues registration is $30.00.
Members enjoy a discounted sauna rate of $8.
Members are assigned to a Group and are required to assist monthly on their designated date to sell tickets, provide refreshments, and clean the lodge.
Members must attend Work Bees in the Fall and in the Spring.
Members are entitled to vote in the yearly election of Board of Directors, to hold office, to serve on committees, and to participate in the Society’s activities.
