NOMCO Membership Commitment

"Our 20/20 Vision"

NOMCO is an organization that stands for something. NOMCO is what its members make it. To be dynamic in this age it takes real commitment. Commitment is affirmed through both time and money.  Not a lot of either, but there must be some level of each to realize the true benefit of membership.

 

NOMCO asks each member to commit to just 20 dollars of dues AND at least 20 hours of participation. Are you in??

 

Each year, we will compile an ongoing list of all the hours the total NOMCO membership has accumulated and what they mean to the community.  For example, during the year we hope to reach …..

  • 200 hours of Community Service Work (litter control, graffiti removal, etc.),
  • 400 hours of meeting attendance,
  • 100 hours of Community Gardening,
  • 200 hours of Youth Activity support,
  • 100 hours of Senior Activity support,
  • 100 hours of Maywood Historic Exploration,
  • 100 hours of Community Advisory efforts,
  • 200 hours of Community Social Networking,
  • and more contributions in so many other important ways!!

It’s up to each individual where the time is put in. It is simply important that self-determination, honor, benevolent purpose and enjoyment grabs everyone for at least 20 hours in the spirit of NOMCO.

 

Keep track of your great service & participation activities and report them to the president from time to time for inclusion in the recording log.

 

Fair enough? Ok, welcome aboard!
