MOMS Club Frequently Asked Questions:
Question: I just joined. Now what?
Answer: Welcome! The first thing to do is look over the newsletter
and calendar and decide you want to participate in. Please RSVP for these
events. If you notice a way you would like to volunteer, please call or
email any executive board member. Their information is listed in each newsletter,
as well as being highlighted in yellow in the current roster.
Question: Can my children really come to everything with me? What
about kids I baby-sit for?
Answer: Yes, you can bring your children to everything except
for Moms Night Out (nursing infants are always welcome.) You may bring
any children that you are responsible for as long as we have a signed
liability release form for each child (available from the Membership
VP.)
Question: How much will the MOMS Club cost me?
Answer: You do not need to spend any money besides your annual dues
of $20, unless you choose to. Most events are free. Some field trips and
mom’s
nights out may cost additional funds, but we try to keep them reasonable.
In addition, you may choose to bring snacks or a potluck dish to some events,
or donate supplies to a party, and the cost of those are up to you.
Question: What do my dues pay for?
Answer: We pay the International MOMS Club $2 per member each year
to maintain our charter. In addition, your dues pay for other incidental
expenses, supplies, stamps, etc. Since we are a non-profit group, we can
spend very little on parties, etc.
and
thus
must rely on our membership
to donate the time and supplies to make our gatherings work.
Question: I have an interest that the MOMS Club doesn’t address.
Whom do I talk to?
Answer: If you have any suggestions, please call any executive
board member. We would love to help you start a new activity group!
Chances are good that if you are interest in something, another member
is too.
Question: How can I get more involved?
Answer: We rely on our members for everything, so your participation
will be very appreciated. Call any executive board member and ask to join
to help plan events. Form a new activity group. Come to the Member’s
meetings and share your ideas and opinions. This is YOUR club, and you
will get out of it what you put into it.
Question: When do I need to renew and whom do I pay?
Answer: Memberships are good for one year. Your renewal is due by
the end of your anniversary month. You will recieve a reminder letter from
the Membership VP the month prior to your renewal. Also, upoming renewals
are listed in the current month's newsletter and your membership date is
reflected in the roster.
Submit
your dues to
our
current Treasurer or Membership VP.
