All renewing members (parents and sons) must have met their volunteer service requirements (10 hours for sons, 5 hours for parents) during the August 1, 2023-July 31, 2024 period in order to be eligible for membership. Those renewing members who did not complete their hours from August 1, 2023-July 31, 2024 will have the opportunity to complete those hours during the current year in addition to the 2024-2025 requirement as a one-time catch-up opportunity. As a service organization, the hours requirement is core to our mission and a requirement for membership.
