wayne77590 Report post Posted February 1, 2013 Question was asked in another forum what the "I" stood for in a membership number of FMCA. Anyone? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hermanmullins Report post Posted February 1, 2013 Wayne, I have never seen a "I" on the plaque. F= Family, S= Son, D= Daughter, L= Life and I believe there are some GS & GD for Grandson and Grand Daughter. I think I am correct. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

rossboyer Report post Posted February 1, 2013 In the Member and Volunteer Handbook, Policy and Procedure 1018 states: "Sons, daughters, grandchildren or parents of active or former members are entitled to request and have assigned by FMCA the original F number with the addition of an “S,” “D,” “G,” or “P,” respectively." and "Suitable special markings are incorporated on the emblems issued to Full Lifetime Members. No other special markings are to be incorporated without the written approval of the Governing Board." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rossboyer Report post Posted February 1, 2013 Those plates start with a 'C' for Commercial. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hermanmullins Report post Posted February 1, 2013 Mr Boyer, You are correct about special markings, The only place to get FMCA Plates is Kelly Mold and I am assured that if the request is for something not on the approved list they would ask for approval from FMCA.

tammyg Report post Posted February 1, 2013 The "I" stands for introductory membership. We have businesses that pay for the first year membership for purchasing a coach. The "I" is a temporary membership number and when the member pays for the renewal they will get a new membership number starting with "F". There are other letters that stand for different things. Commercial members start with "C". Member that have sold the coach but want to retain the membership are called associate members and starts with "A". I hope this helps answer your question.

hermanmullins Report post Posted February 2, 2013 Tammy, Chapters have received several "Free Memberships" each year. It is my understanding that those that receive the free membership are the ones that get the temp. number. Since this program was introduced, are there any numbers as to how many did renew and received a permanent Number? By the way Tammy, You and all of the staff in Cincinnati are doing a wonderful job. Cudos to all. Herman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
