Trip Leaders: You will be advised of prospective members booked on your trip if it has been considered a membership “qualifying trip”, and a Membership Application form will be attached. You will be requested to print a Membership Application form for each of those prospective members on your trip and to have them complete and sign the form. Also, you will be asked to “propose” the prospective members and have another LRC member on the trip to “second” the proposals.

You will then be required to email a scan or photo of the completed Applications to the Membership Secretary before the next Ordinary meeting or otherwise advise the Membership Secretary that the prospective member has been proposed. Original form is then presented to the Membership Secretary at the next Ordinary meeting.
