Let all members of the White River Bowhunters know that the following guidelines are set down by the
members each year in March, to insure that each and every member will be provided with the most
complete, safe, prosperous and organized club possible.

These guidelines are not to conflict with our Constitution and By-Laws. These guidelines allow us to
run our organization more efficiently, without having to constantly amend our By-Laws. (Note- often
when amending our By-Laws they have to be changed thru the state and must always by done with the
aid of the club’s lawyer). These guidelines will be reviewed each year and the membership will add,
delete or change them as they feel necessary. No changes may be made unless all members are notified
by mail prior to such meeting held for this purpose.

1    Any individual wishing to become a member must attend a monthly meeting to sign up and be
      approved by the Advisory Board. A Advisory Board meeting, for this purpose will be held after
      the regular meeting each month. NEW MEMBERS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO VOTE UNTIL
      NEXT MEETING. The Advisory Board may may make allowance for a applicant who cannot attend
      a meeting.

3    There will be no vehicles allowed on the wooded portion of the range unless it is in performance of
      range maintenance.

      Assist during the classic shoot. The Shoot Chairman will assign workers, where needed.

5    The locks on the club gate will be changed each year at May meeting. The Secretary will issue each
      new member a key to said lock when their dues are paid up to date. $l.00 will be charged, if a member
      does not have the previous year’s gate key to exchange. All club keys will be stored in the furnace
      room and keys to this area will be issued on a as needed basis, authorized by the club president.

6 Broad-head type points will not be used on the practice range except on authorized targets. At no time
will broad-heads be shot into the indoor bales at the clubhouse.

7    At no time will any member charge merchandise or services to the club without authorization from the
      membership, or a majority of the Advisory Board. Any member doing so will do so at their own risk
      and cannot expect restitution from the club.

8 No alterations to the club facilities will be made without proper authorization from the membership, or
a majority of the Advisory Board.

maintain morale among workers.
