Sponsorship For Membership
Defined
Any Association hunter in good standing may sponsor into the Association another.
The current member by sponsoring another is attesting to the character of the hunter being in compliance with the Association's conditions of membership.
These conditions of membership have literal regulations that are immutable. There also does exist such "spirit of intent" that defies specific definition. These areas include the concept of sportsmanship. We all have an idea of what sportsmanship is. We all can have different definitions of it. The Association has its common understanding of the value of sportsmanship. Or, behaving as ladies and gentlemen in all things regarding hunting regulations, the Association staff, landowners, wildlife and land.
Benefits To Sponsorship
Benefits to sponsorship include it is the only guaranteed method by which membership candidates may bypass any waiting list.
Liabilities To Those Sponsoring
Liabilities of sponsorship include the current member's name will be forever tagged to the new member. The sponsor must ensure the candidate understands the Association rules and its do it yourself hunts system.
Should the new member conduct actions in contravention to the Mid-America Hunting Association rules the sponsoring member will lose his privilege of sponsoring any future hunters.
Not Required
Sponsorship is not required for entry into the Association. Association candidates maybe be accepted through our regular interview and acceptance process.
Always feel free to call and talk to Jon Nee or John Wenzel about membership. They are willing to talk to all. That includes those that do not know any one in the Association. The number to call is at the bottom of each web page.
