Your INBC Membership Card & Handbook

Be sure to print out your Membership Card, and review the Members Handbook. Your Membership Card validates your exclusive affiliation with us. Some members use this card as additional reference points when interacting with their local chamber of commerce, entry to INBC events & discounted entry for some events, and solidifies your membership with us. The Members Handbook contains our rules and regulations for being a member with our organization. From time to time this handbook will be updated. It is best to review it every two years as officers on the INBC Board of Directors change. If you have any suggestions for the handbook, feel free to contact us.

INBC Board Of Directors

To be an officer on the INBC Board you have to be elected by the active members within our organization every two years. Voting usually starts in or around April/May with new officers taking their positions in July of the same year. Those who are interested in any of these voluntary positions has to submit a photo plus a small resume/bio of what makes them eligible for the position. Members are encouraged to review each candidate running for office, and cast their votes accordingly. You can only vote one time per election. 

Those who are elected for a position assumes that role for two years. Officers are eligible to run/serve for two terms (four years total) in the same position. Each position has only one officer except for Vice President which may have two. Positions on the INBC Board of Directors are: President, Vice President, Treasurer, Secretary, Public Relations Officer, Events Coordinator, and Webmaster.

INBC's Committess & Teams

Throughout the years INBC has had various committees and teams with many of the positions overlapping. In the past, Public Relations was an assistant position, but evolved into a more noble position on the Board. As more people sign up to volunteer, teams/committees are developed.
