The following excerpt from the MSCC's Constitution outlines the requirements for
membership in the Miniature Schnauzer Club of Canada.
ARTICLE IV
Membership
Section 1. Eligibility. Membership shall be open to any person who
subscribes to the objectives, intents and Code of Recommended Practices of the MSCC.
Section 2. Classes of Membership.
REGULAR membership shall be open to all eligible persons. A regular
member shall have full privileges of the Club and shall have the right to vote and shall be
eligible to serve on committees and/or hold executive office. Regular members must be 18
years of age or older. Applications for Regular Membership must be signed by the applicant
and by two sponsors who have been Regular Members of the Club for 3 consecutive years or
longer, and must be accompanied by dues payment for the current or ensuing year. The
applicant's name and sponsors will be published in the next Club newsletter. If no
objections are received within 6 weeks of publication, the applicant will be automatically
confirmed at the next Regular or Board meeting. If objections are received, the
application will be presented at the next Regular meeting and a 2/3 majority vote will be
required to accept the applicant. Any applicant denied regular membership may not be
presented for reconsideration for 12 months. [Amendment

ASSOCIATE membership shall be open to all eligible persons of any age.
Associate members will receive the Club newsletter, may attend meetings and participate in
discussions and may take part in any Club activities or events, unless such events have been
specifically closed to them. Associate members may not vote, hold office, or advertise
themselves as MSCC members. Associate members do not require sponsors, but their signed
application must be accompanied by dues payment for the current or ensuing year. The
applicant's name will be published in the next Club newsletter. If no objections are
received within 6 weeks, the applicant will be automatically confirmed at the next Regular
or Board meeting. If objections are received, the application will be presented at the next
