It is with deep regret that I feel the need to write to you in relation to the status of our membership base at our yacht club.
As you are all well aware, a club is made up of members, paid up members. At the moment the MYCV has about 12 of them. It is hard to believe that we are the oldest Yacht Club in Victoria and yet the smallest in membership base. Anyone who races regularly, needs a Silver Card from Yachting Victoria. The MYCV is the cheapest way to achieve this.
Unfortunately at our current membership level, it is not sustainable for us to continue as a successful yacht club. The time has come. We now need to call on you all to respond and become paid up members.
It’s as easy as downloading a Membership Application form from the website, fax/email it and EFT payment straight into our bank account (all details are on the membership form). Alternatively, you can pay by cash or cheque to David Tapper on Monday 30th November at Bells Hotel South Melbourne at our Christmas meeting/drinks. If you enjoy multihull racing, cruising, spending time with people who share the same interest, then lets start pushing to increase our membership base.
Thank you.
