Chapter Coordinator Information

Q: Our Chapter needs a replacement Chapter Packet. How do I get this?
A: Send a check or money order made out to "The Camarilla" to the Camarilla mailing address. The cost is $10 per copy.

Q: How much prestige can I earn in a month?
A: The 100 point cap is no longer valid. If you go over the 100 points the ADoCh will forward that to the RC for review. You can actually earn up to the maximum for each category that is in the Tome. These will be reviewed by the RC.

Q: Why have I not gotten the Coordinators Recognition Prestige?
A: This is a simple question. To get this you must send in your report ON TIME AND COMPLETE for 6 straight months. Complete means that you include the list of members with all their information, prestige breakdown for each member, Questions (if any), what the chapter is doing.

Q: When are my reports due?
A: Chapter reports are due by the 1st of the following month. If you are reporting for April your reports are due by May 1st. Domain reports are due by the 7th of the following month. If your reports are going to be late drop us a line and let us know. This helps out and we don't think you have forgotten or the chapter is no longer active.

Q: What can you do to get your chapter status back to Green?
A: You can send in any back reports which will get you there faster. You can also send in your normal reports on time and this will get you on track again.

Q: How do I get my questions answered in a reasonable amount of time?
A: This is a very good question. The DoCh has instituted a policy to get you your answers within two weeks of your reports being filed. Your RC should answer them in that time period. If they are really busy (sometimes this happens) the ADoCh or myself will answer the questions. You can also send any of your questions to [email protected] which will be forwarded to the appropriate people.

Q: Do the CC and CST get presige for attending their chapter meetings?
A: No. They do not get the prestige for attending meetings they attend in an official manner. It is part of their job and they get up to 50 prestige for this.

Q: I want to start a chapter can I send membership applications with the chapter applications or do I have to wait until I get the Membership applications back?
A: Send the membership applications with the chapter application. This will speed up the process and cut down on multiple mailings.
