5. Members motions –
Proposal
1 – To increase the current membership fee to cover future costs associated
with storing our fleet of boats on the beach.
Fees have never been raised since the club was formed and a doubling of
current fees would still mean that the club is one of the best value top clubs
in the UK. Family membership £30, Over
18 £20, Junior £10 Proposed Ian Bell, seconded by Peter Thomas.
Proposal 2 – To allow for automatic renewal of membership fees with full
reimbursement for any member who does not cancel their membership in time.
Currently many members fail to renew and then seek help checking or asking for it
to be done. This should streamline the
membership process. Proposed Keith Steer,
seconded by Peter Thomas.
6. Chair
to thank all the volunteers that have coordinated and guided the club over the
past year.
Special thanks going to
those who are now moving on: Frankie Annan - Secretary, John Cooke – Monday pool,
Joe Sheppard – white water, John Pegram (Docks Equipment Officer)
