Hello all,
I'm hoping some of you can provide some insight on how you handle meeting guests, after they've been attending multiple meetings? We have not run into this problem before, but we currently have a guest, which guests are encouraged to attend, but he has now been to 3 meetings without joining the club! You kind of have to call it as it is... it appears he's just there for free beer.
I assume other clubs have had a free-loader or two to deal with, so I'm looking for some advice. How many times do you let a guest attend a meeting before politely letting them know they either need to join, or quit coming? And how do you approach that conversation? Are your actions supported by anything in your by-laws?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Tom
