Memberships (UPDATED INFO)

[Missbehavin]

Well since I am taking over membership coordinator I figured it would only make sense to make a thread reminding people that 2013 club dues are now due.

I WANT TO ANNOUNCE THAT SCOTT ELDRIDGE WAS OUR FIRST PAID MEMBER OF 2013! WOO HOO!! THANKS SCOTT

Our membership dues are not a lot of money and help keep or club going. 10 dollars of the amount is actually spent towards insurance while on the trail. So in actual fact not a lot gets out towards the club.

I believe John is going to start a thread here soon to start discussing how we can make having a membership more beneficial other then our regular events and activities, so keep in mind more good is yet to come.

You can send me a PM if you need more information on becoming a member or how to get your membership dues paid.

Thanks everyone!

Still collecting dues for 2013, for those that have already paid thank you!!!

Next thing, if you are an official member and you never received a membership card please send me a PM! Do not!!! reply on this thread! PM please! And spell your name out for me how you want it on the card and the year you became a member!

These cards are only issues once!!! You do not get one every year, as of right now that's the way it stands! So if you already had one then that's the only 1, if you have never received one please send me your info!

UPDATE


We got together and had an executive meeting on Saturday and discussed a few things one of the big things being memberships, so the information we have figured out so far is this:

1.) Currently we have had no cap on the amount of monthly club runs a non member could attend. The only rules we had in place was 3 club runs and a monthly meeting to fill out an application to become a member.

WE WILL NOW BE CHANGING THIS.

After 3 monthly club runs we ask that the non member fills out their application to become a member.

The similar will be for existing members that have not paid their dues, dues are due at the AGM and we will ask that by the March Club run that you have your dues paid, that should give sufficient time to have your dues paid.

We want to keep the club alive so we need memberships paid.

2.) With the above being changed, we will now be asking ALL drivers to fill out a waiver form at EACH club run. This was done in the past and really should be done anyway. This will not only help with attendance but protect the club as well. It only takes a minute.

3.) So, with gaining a membership we figure we should offer some extra incentives. We have decided that at every monthly meeting before the club runs we will have a draw to win a prize. This will be for any paid member that is present at the time of the draw. The prizes will vary, this month it was an NSJC sticker.

4.) We have also decided to start having 50/50 draws at coffee nights and club runs. This will allow a little extra funding for the club to add to extra incentives. The winnings might only be small for example, 10 dollars, but its more then what you started with if you win. And it will surely add up for the club. Also there are many days in the summer coffee night turn outs are high!

5.) So with the extra being done, we are hoping to bring together some extra cool events like pool tournaments etc so members can enjoy some free pool and have some prize give aways there as well. As time goes on we will figure out some other events to host as well.

6.) We are still working on email money transfer, when we get that figured out, I will post up ASAP. As for right now you can PM me and we can figure out a time to meet if you would like to pay dues, or you can come to coffee night on Wednesdays.

7.) We have other incentives in the works but will be announced as we have them approved.

PLEASE DO NOT REPLY IN THIS THREAD!!!! I WANT TO KEEP THIS INFO UP ON THE FIRST PAGE OF THIS THREAD. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, CONCERNS OR THOUGHTS, PLEASE PM ME!!!

THANKS EVERYONE
