articipation Guidelines
1. To participant in any event as a member of St.
Ives, membership dues must be current. Yearly dues are to be paid by
March 31st of each year, or one month prior to the first event in
which a new member wishes to participate.
2. Each member is required to have all paperwork
current. This includes timely notification of changes of address and
phone number. An Emergency Information Sheet and all Waivers of
Liability for the event must be on file with the Administrative
Director before participation.
3. Members will provide their own costume
appropriate to the event, approved by the event organizer and the
Theatrical Director (if the two have separate costuming
requirements). Where the event costume requirements are more lenient
than St. Ives', members will follow the St. Ives costuming
requirements. Costume Guidelines are available from the
Administrative Director.
4. Auditions may be required for certain
performances, events, or roles. Passing such auditions will be
required in order to participate.
5. Members are to fulfill any St. Ives,
Household, or individual duties as required for each event.
6. All event participants are expected to help
with event site construction and teardown.
7. A member with a problem within the context
of their St. Ives participation should first take the problem to
their Household Head, or the Site Manager,Madrigal Director, Music
Director, or Dance Master, as appropriate. If they are unable to
resolve the problem, go to either the Theatrical Director or
Administrative Director for resolution.
8. When a member is disruptive, fails to
participate, or puts others at risk and the members Head of
Household is unable to resolve the situation, the Administrative
Director and Theatrical Director will be advised. The Directors will
then take appropriate action, including but not limited to:
counseling, issuing a warning letter, or pulling the members' event
pass. If a pass is pulled, the member must resolve the situation to
the Directors' satisfaction before they can participate in any
subsequent St. Ives event. If a satisfactory resolution seems
unlikely, the Directors will make a recommendation to the Board of
Directors to expel the member. A two-thirds majority of the Board is
needed to expel any member from St. Ives. |
