Four regular work parties are held each year. Generally, scheduled for a Saturday, they run approximately four hours long (9AM-1PM). Each member is expected to earn a minimum of eight hours credit, usually by attending at least two of these work parties.  If unable to earn credit by attending a work party, members can ask to be given a special assignment. Work Parties are for House & Ground projects.  All members shall be obligated to contribute their fair share of labor, time, or effort on behalf of the club to permit its operation on a minimum budget.
