Process Notes
The Board of Directors has adopted the following processes to support the Policies of the San Luis Obispo Bicycle Club.
Contents
1. Administration
Membership Signup
The SLOBC will maintain an online membership process that requires annual renewal, waiver acknowledgement and electronic dues payment. A printed membership form that includes a waiver will be developed for those without internet access or who want to pay by check. Payment process should be setup to accept credit cards.
2. Conflicts of Interest
3. Finance
3.14 B To avoid any documentation issues, the Treasurer will clearly identify the proposed payee, amount, and description of the disbursement in his email to the approver. For example, "Please approve a $4,500 disbursement to Voler for the deposit on the Wildflower clothing order as per the attached documentation."

All century registration transfers must be completed through our ride registration service provider (Active.com). Transfers must be completed no later than 6 A.M. two days before the ride.
Volunteer Brunch Attendance
To support young families within the SLOBC:
