Hi everyone, here is a new 2000 application for membership. Dues have
stayed the same. The constitution has a provision for late fees after Jan.
31st, however, there will be a grace period as we know this is being sent
late. An all new newsletter is being produced in Southern California.
Thanks, and happy sailing! Paul Carter, Roadrunner

ARTICLE 2 - DUES
3) CO-OWNERS - In the event an Olson 30 is owned in good faith by more than
one person, the owners shall determine
which is the principal owner, and he shall pay dues of an Active member. The
remaining co-owners shall pay dues of an
Associate member.
4) FAMILY - Immediate members of a family (husband, wife, sons, and daughters) who intend to skipper an Olson 30 in sanctioned events shall be registered as co-owners, but shall not be required to pay dues; either spouse may register as the principal owner and pay the dues of an Active member. In matters settled by voting the family must caucus and vote as one member.
5) DUE DATES - All dues are payable on or before January 1, except for new owners of record having purchased an Olson 30 after January 1. In that event, the new owner shall have 90 days to join the Class without late fees. Dues not paid by January 31 shall be assessed a $5.00 late fee.
ARTICLE 3 - ELIGIBILITY Only Active members are eligible to enter Class sanctioned events and shall have been Active members not less than 30 days prior to the event. Only Class members may helm in Class sanctioned events.
ARTICLE 4 - CHARTERING Only an Active member in good standing with the Association may charter an Olson 30 for a sanctioned event. The intent of this by-law is to prevent token charters or token purchases of an Olson 30 solely for the purpose of entering sanctioned events.
ARTICLE 5 - CLUBS In the event a recognized yacht club owns one or more Olson 30 sloops for the use of all qualified club members, any club member may use the boat for any sanctioned event except the National Championship.
