MEMBERSHIP RULES

These rules apply to all members of the association and constitute a complement and clarification to the association's statutes.

A member undertakes through his membership to follow the association's statutes and these rules. In the event of serious or repeated violations, the materials manager, rowing director or board may decide on temporarily revoked or reduced rights to use the association's materials.

1. Fees
The membership fee is valid for one year from the time the membership fee has been paid. A member who has paid a membership fee receives a tip from the board that gives access to the boathouse. Blippen is active for one year. Blippen's activity is extended when a new membership fee has been received in the association's account.

Through their membership, each member confirms that the association has the right to keep a membership register with information as above, and that the information may be used in connection with the association's regular activities. This includes, among other things, membership mailings, license management, grant applications, etc. The association undertakes to process personal data with care and not to use data for anything other than the association's core activities without approval.

2. The boathouse
The active members are expected to contribute to keeping the association's boathouses, boats and other equipment in good condition. This means that everyone must ensure that the boathouse's premises are kept clean and everyone must show up on the annual cleaning days. The boathouse superintendent or other person appointed by the board indicates what needs to be done and when.

All active members are responsible for keeping the association's boathouses, other premises and equipment under supervision or locked in accordance with the insurance terms. In addition, lighting, water and heating must be switched off according to the boathouse supervisor's instructions when no one is using the premises.

The party room is a part of the boathouse delimited from the rowing business. At certain times, the rental can mean that activity is conducted outdoors so that it competes for the same spaces. The lease states that the rowing business shall not be disturbed, but the rowers are encouraged to show the greatest possible consideration for the tenant. The premises may be used for meetings related to the association's activities and in consultation with the board or the person appointed to manage the party premises.

The clubhouse is intended for the active well-being and must be kept clean. Crockery and cutlery must be kept separate from the party room and cleaned after use. No clothes may be stored in the changing rooms other than during the training sessions. Belongings without owners may be removed.

3. Rodd
All active people are encouraged to primarily do their training for the general training sessions that are reported on www.akdemiskarodd.se.
