The Irminfolk’s Administrative structure.

There are two general categories of membership in the Irminfolk, The Irminfolk Odinist Community, which is a Folkish kindred headquartered in the Upper Delaware Valley of New York State; and the Irminfolk Auxiliary, which is a more nebulous arrangement for people who support our mission but are not in close proximity.

Both the Community and the Auxiliary are directed by the board of Directors which provides the overall planning and coordination of all of the Irminfolk’s programs. There are five Director positions:  The president, two vice presidents (one for innengard, and one for utgard), a recording secretary, and a financial secretary. They work together with the voting (oathed) members of the Irminfolk to provide the smooth businesslike operation which facilitates the religious purpose of the Irminfolk’s mission.

Four times a year, the Board conducts a formal meeting -governed by the rules of deliberative assembly- to assess the overall organization’s progress; to plan, debate and agree upon new initiatives; and to review the documentation of the groups finances and status in a transparent manner. Additionally, throughout the year, the board and members meet informally to steer the course of the Irminfolk’s day-to-day running. Generally speaking, routine decisions are left up to informal discretion, and innovations are hashed out between board meetings and then formally proposed before the assembly to be debated, and voted upon.
