ARTICLE II MEMBERSHIP

A. Active Members – Participants in any production, onstage or backstage as designated by the director or a member of the board, member of the RTP Board, member of any RTP Board committee within the previous two full seasons
B. Financial Supporters – Consisting of Season Ticket Holders and anyone having made a financial donation (such as a Patron, Angel, Saint, Nifty Fifty etc).
C. Junior Members – Participants in any production, onstage or backstage under the age of 18 at the time of their participation, within the previous two full seasons.

Section 2. Members of Class A, B, and D will be eligible to vote at the annual member meeting.
Section 3. Members of Class A, B, and D are eligible for election as an Officer or Trustee.
