Board Decisions

Youth Exchange Program

It was resolved that the Club would support an incoming exchange student in 2025. Three
members have indicated that they would be willing to host (Cathy Wright, Sandra Harrington
& Vicki Stewart) as well as the family of the outgoing student of 2024.

Membership Dues
It was resolved that the Treasurer should invoice members for club dues (subscriptions) for
the half year to December 2024, for $200 to be payable by 1 May 2024.

You would have received notification about these dues over the weekend. This was decided
in order to avoid the situation where we might have to pay the RI dues if a member resigns
around the time they are due.
