The membership then provides rolling stock by loaning and maintaining a few cars to the clubs' general use on the layout. Every member works for the benefit of the club, with any gain from club activities going to the club. No one member, new or old, is more important than the club as a whole. On work nights there is no operating between those times, except for authorized training. Operating nights are scheduled at regular intervals to allow members to run trains on the layout.
All members are welcome to attend and take part in discussions at the meetings.
Only Life and Senior members may vote, howerever. Open houses, flea markets, and shows will be the clubs' primary source of revenue. The shows and open houses are the clubs' major contact with the public and press. The actions and courtesy of all members during those events reflect on the club, for good or bad. A maximum effort is required of all members in order for shows, open houses, or flea markets to be successful.
