With the new membership year starting on 1 April 2010, renewal requests were emailed (or postal mailed in a small number of cases) to all existing adult and junior members yesterday. Members are asked to renew their membership as promptly as possible (or to advise the Treasurer, Secretary or Membership Secretary if they do not plan to renew) so that we can offer places to new members on the waiting list. There is a financial incentive to renew promptly (by 15 April), and a financial penalty for renewing late.
