Memberships
Membership renewals are now open.
If you’re unsure how to renew, just email Marg at administrator@eimeoslsc.com.au and she’ll be happy to guide you.
From our next Nippers Day (7 September), if a child’s name isn’t showing during the online sign-on, their guardian will be directed to our Administrator to finalise membership before joining in.
Please complete this ahead of time so the kids don’t miss out on a great Sunday!
We’ve also had a few questions about patrolling members’ fees. In previous years, grants helped subsidise these costs, but unfortunately this is no longer possible. At the AGM, the Club made the tough decision to introduce a small membership fee for patrollers to help cover insurance. Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
