At this year’s AGM there will be a special resolution to add a new Director position role to the board being the Director of Member Services & Youth. This position is much needed for helping the experience for all of our members including member recognition, inclusion, satisfaction and development.

If the special resolution for a Director of Member Services & Youth is passed we will be seeking nominations from the floor at the AGM to be considered and approved at the first board meeting held in September. To be eligible you must have been a patrolling member for a minimum of 5 years, be in good standing and financial for 2021/22. Please see Key Responsibilities below.

Membership Fees 2021/22

Membership fees are our largest source of revenue and with the Club’s hall and bar closed, functions cancelled and no merchandising sales, the Club depends largely on membership fees to ensure we can pay our ongoing commitments and not erase the savings that guarantee our future building plans.

Please support the club by paying your membership fees as they are due and payable by 30th September 2021. To vote at the AGM you must be financial.

The Board appreciates that some members could be facing financial uncertainty and as always can apply to the club for fee relief on the grounds of financial hardship. All applications will be treated confidentially- Email to The President at admin@manlylsc.com
