STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES MID-WEST CORVETTES, INC.
This will establish the Standard Operating Procedures for the Mid-West Corvette Club.
The intention is to formalize and put into a written document the procedures established by the Board of Directors and membership. This written procedure will be put into place to eliminate confusion and questions. These SOPs may be a one-time event or an ongoing event.
The Board of Directors, by a majority vote, will have the authority to establish, amend or delete SOPs without having the membership vote on them. Additions or changes may also be presented by members at a business meeting. These changes would be discussed and voted on during the meeting. To pass the change would require a simple majority of those in attendance at the meeting. They would not have to be read at a meeting and voted on at the next meeting as do Constitution and By-Law changes.
The President and Secretary will be responsible for keeping the SOPs up to date. The President will be responsible for taking the vote and identifying what items will be added to the SOPs.
SOP 1.0 Social Event Payment (April 5, 2011)
The fee to the host of a social event has been re-established to be $75.00. This payment will be given to the host and/or hostess who provide the home or other place to hold the event. In the event of co-host, the host will be responsible to divide the money as they see fit. Only $75.00 will be provided each month. This SOP was brought up and voted on at the March 2011 business meeting.
SOP 2.0 2 Way Radios Recommended for Club Drive-Outs (April 5, 2011)
The Board of Directors at the March meeting recommended, for the safety of all participants and communication, that all cars participating in drive-outs have operating 2 Way Radios. We will use channel 3, and not use privacy codes to start out. This will enable older hand radios to work with the new ones.
SOP 3.0 Reimbursement for Governors’ Meeting (June 17, 2008)
When and if the Governor attends the National Council NCCC Governors’ meeting, the MWC will reimburse travel expenses and one nights lodging.
SOP 4.0 Drive Out Rules and Procedures (April 5, 2011)
This will keep us safe, and keep us from getting lost and frustrated. 1) Every car needs a hand held 2 way radio. If you do not have one, borrow one from another member. 2) Use your radio for road communication only. Use your cell phone to chat with friends. 3) On drive outs with more than 10 cars, we will pass road messages to the center car and then to the back. 4) On drive outs every car is responsible to keep up with the car in front of them. But you must use common sense and drive safely. 5) Every car is also responsible for the car behind them, if you make a turn, make sure the car behind you sees you, or wait for them.
