Prices 2009

When you join the club, an account is set up in your name. We expect you to keep this account in credit. Some people have a standing order that pays straight into the club's account (ask the Treasurer about this), others prefer to pay as they go. At the club, cheques and money should be put in one of the brown envelopes provided, with the details of the payment clearly written on the outside.
