2025-2026 Active Membership Renewal *
(Please note important changes below.)
There are specific “Active” membership requirements in the Cassina Garden Club. These include the following responsibilities:
Attend at least three monthly meetings each year
Actively serve on at least one Standing or Special Committee
Participate in the maintenance of the gardens on scheduled days or upon special request
Actively participate in the Club’s two major fundraisers: the Christmas Bake Sale and the Garden Walk, including the purchase of a ticket
Occasionally serve as a Docent at the cabins for scheduled tours
Keep yearly dues current ($130 + $5 for processing fee and includes cost for Cassina Yearbook). Dues DO NOT include the cost of a Garden Walk ticket.
Abide by Cassina’s “Code of Conduct” (below)
COMMITTEE REQUESTS: Our By-Laws require Active Members to serve on at least one committee. Some committees require many hands to get the job done; others require only a few. Committee Chairs are charged with establishing the size of their committee.
New Standing Rule (passed by Board): MEMBERS MAY BE ON MULTIPLE COMMITTEES, BUT THEY MAY ONLY SERVE AS CHAIRPERSON ON ONE COMMITTEE EACH YEAR.
New Article under III-Membership: ALL MEMBERS OF THE CASSINA GARDEN CLUB SHALL CONDUCT THEMSELVES IN A RESPECTFUL AND APPROPRIATE MANNER DURING MEETINGS, AT EVENTS, AND WITHIN THE COMMUNITY.
Article IV-Dues: DUES SHALL BE SET BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS. The Board passed a dues increase to $130 (+$5 for processing fee) due to increased costs since last set in 2014.
