First of all, we want to say, “Congratulations to Allen Higgins, Doreen Quirke and Dianne Aitken on their 50 years membership of WTMC … they have been with the club since 1961.”
Secondly, look out for your 2011/12 FMC card and June FMC bulletin arriving in your letterbox, you should receive them by middle of June.
Lastly and most importantly, I am seeking comments and feedback, from members and non-members, on our current membership eligibility:
- Do you think our current criteria of 3 overnight non-lodge base trips, where two of them need to be tramping/ mountaineering trips, is a bit excessive?
- Should we be more relaxed with the rules to allow certain day walks to qualify too?
- If you are not yet our club member, what is the reason?
If you would like your say, please send me an email and I will raise your comments at our next Committee/ planning meeting.
Thank you everyone. Don’t forget to keep warm and stay dry out there!
