Member Code of Conduct
Member Code of Conduct
As a private, nonprofit club, it is critical that our members benefit from an environment that is safe, clean, fun and conducive to an individual's growth in jiu jitsu, and more generally as a human. We believe that to achieve this it is important that all members adhere to a code of conduct. Additionally, as a club within the Milwaukie Elks that is composed of Lodge members, it is important that EJJC members uphold the values and rules set out by the Lodge. https://www.elks.org/who/information.cfm
