: V:7 - Chapter Membership
a) Members shall not only hold membership in the Corporation, but shall also be considered Members of their regional chapter.
"Regional chapter" shall be the chapter in which their primary residence is located.
1) For Members who change their residence location on a regular basis (attending school, professional relocations, and such,) their Chapter Membership shall be considered as the chapter where they reside for the greater part of the calendar year.
2) Chapter Elections - Members shall only be eligible to elect Chapter Officers in the Chapter in which they are a Member. Members may vote in elections for both the Corporation
and for the Chapter in which they are considered a Member. If no chapter applies to their residence, then they may not vote in any Chapter election. If a Member is found to have voted in multiple Chapter elections,
all votes cast by that Member in
all chapters shall be invalidated. Votes cast by that Member in Corporation elections shall stand.
b)
Members may consider themselves members of both the parent organisation and one (1) geographic region/chapter, if they should reside in a region that is covered by an extant Chapter. This is not to be construed as a restriction on the formation of a new Chapter.

Montana is not in our boundaries. MT Mike says that he is more in PNW Chapter anyway.
