Note: A "Linked membership" is a special type of membership that comes as one of the benefits of the higher levels of business memberships. The person who signs up for the high-level business membership is considered the primary member, and it is the member who is listed in the Green Pages. The primary member also chooses who will be the Linked members, although Linked members must be co-workers in the same firm (not sub-contractors, friends, etc.). Linked members have all of the privileges and benefits that Homeowner - Supporter members have and are able to participate fully in the activities of the Guild.
