New Member Safety Briefing

NEW MEMBERS...

Upon joining DBCL, all new members are required to attend a New Member Safety Briefing (NMSB).

Effective July 1st, 2022, no new member may use the DBCL grounds or facilities until after they have attended a NMSB. This decision was made by the DBCL Board of Directors at the June 20th meeting.

New members had previously been given up to 90 days to attend a NMSB but were to ensure they followed the DBCL Facility Use & Safety Procedures in the interim. This policy has recently changed.

Jeff Pharris
President - DBCL
