History

The Tesla Owners Club of New Mexico was incorporated in NM on August 16, 2022 with a board of directors, officials, bylaws, and membership dues.

After the former president, Brian Dear, left the club several concerned members got together to continue the club. In order for the club to continue our relationship with Tesla, they required that we become an official club with articles of incorporation. So, we formed a Board of Directors from the group of interested people, appointed initial officers, formed a 501(c)7 corporation (a “social” group), filed with the state, opened a bank account, and set up a dues schedule.

The TOCNM Board has been holding meetings via Zoom to finalize roles and responsibilities and get basics up and running like the website while still holding a few road rallies along different routes. The board will make the agenda available when we can, but please realize this is an all-volunteer organization and some things take time.

Code of Conduct

Do:

• Be polite and considerate
• Participate and promote club events or club participation in other events
• Share photos/video/stories/etc. of members, tesla products, and events
• Promote club efforts and overall culture
• Advocate for Tesla and its mission to accelerate the transition to sustainable energy
• Advocate for EV-related policy issues (check with your policy contact if you have questions)
• Keep interactions relevant and professional, whether engaging with Elon, Tesla’s official accounts or other members of TOCNM
• If you would like to engage in debate, please use a personal account, not a club account

Do NOT:

• Be rude or a jerk
• Bash other EV manufacturers (this runs counter to our larger mission)
• Share or debate personal agendas, politics, or nsfw (not safe for work) content

Most of these should be common-sense for our club.

As awareness grows, clubs that are Official Partners of the Tesla Owners Club Program must act in a professional, mission-focused manner. Actions counter to this may injure the club’s reputation with the Tesla community, the program partners, or with the public at large.
