Memberships
The Federation is a new organization designed to support
Chinook breeders and exhibitors. We don't intend to
replace any existing Chinook organizations, but will
enhance the ability of breeders to work together and
assist exhibitors in developing new venues in
which they can exhibit their Chinooks.
Our primary means of communication is the Internet, so
get ready to move the Chinook into the era of technology!
However, for those without Internet access, for a $15 copying
and postage fee, we will copy things off the site and send
it out when there are updates. We
feel that using the Internet allows us to get information to
our membership the moment it happens. It will also allow
members to communicate imediately with each others through
our discussion board. In addition,
we publish an online newsletter,
Chinook Online! and update
our exhibitor's calender, which
includes all venues for the Chinook, such as flyball, obedience,
sledding, agility, herding and conformation.
There are two levels of membership to choose from:
Breeder/Exhibitor Member
If you are a U.K.C. Chinook owner, are over 18 years of
age, and want to be involved in a great new organization
where breeders and exhibitors will work together to develop
new venues for Chinooks, this is
the group for you. This level of membership offers you
maximum participation in the organization process as
we develop structures to support the continued development of
the Chinook dog. We currently have some great deals on
Charter Memberships. Don't miss this opportunity! This offer
will not be repeated.

Membership dues structure.
Chinook Supporter Member
Chinook Supporter Members are members who want to participate
in the Federation and support the Chinook breed at a reduced cost.
In addition, there is no requirement to own a Chinook or be over
18 years of age.
These members can interact fully in Federation activities and
discussions, but do not vote on official Federation policies. Chinook
Supporters donate a minimum of $5.00 yearly to the Federation.
Higher donations are always welcome.
For those not online, an
addition $15.00 is required to cover printing and mailing costs.
Take this link to see how you can apply
for membership.
Please refer to the Bylaws for a full explanation of the membership
structure. All fees are subject to change.
