Reps

The role of the Club Representative (Club Rep) is to act as the main communications link between their club and the FMCBC.  They will provide input to the Board as required.  Club representatives are invited to the FMCBC Annual General Meeting to participate, elect directors and approve the FMCBC’s annual budget.

Time Commitment:  Between 1-3 hours per month

Communication

The FMCBC sends out communications to club reps via the Club Rep groups.io so it is important that club reps review this and when requested, respond to emails received from the FMCBC.
Club Reps are also the people who communicate their club issues, announcements, and questions to the FMCBC, and communications from all club executives and members is welcome and encouraged.
If you’re a Club Rep and do not receive FMCBC communications, email us: admin.manager@mountainclubs.org

Administrative/Financial

We will invoice your club in the spring and in the fall (subject to club individual numbers).  Please see our Membership Fees page for full details.  The invoice is sent to the club’s FMCBC Rep and it is the Reps responsibility to forward the invoice to the club’s treasurer. The club’s FMCBC rep is responsible for ensuring the invoice is paid in a timely manner and that we receive your final membership numbers when requested.

Cloudburst and Newsletter

It is the responsibility of club reps to send their members a subscription link for our quarterly newsletter and bi-annual Cloudburst series. The link is: mountainclubs.org/subscribe

Subscription is optional, but should be encouraged as these publications contain important and timely information for all of our member clubs.
