Default South Aust members, Please read.

I'm interested in doing the same as the Victorian guys and charging a gold coin donation for cruise notes for our cruises.
It won't add up to a lot, but will give us a small pool of money to buy tropheys for dyno days etc.

The amount of money collected and how it is spent will be available to the Board at all times.

What are your thoughts?

Darin.

Not a bad idea at all. I'm sure most of us can spare a dollar or two.

I can't tell, but I hope that's sarcasm.

Just get one of those mobile EFTPOS machines and tell members there's a $10 minimum. And charge them $5 for cash out lol.

Glad to see the support for this but I will say now, handfuls of 5 cent bits will not be accepted.

i hope like hell you're joking............ gold coin donation is the accepted payment by many clubs for various things...hell ive been known to donate and recieve nothing.........
the donations help the members who help you....
printing maps, buying sausages and drinks for bbq's, trophies for events etc isnt cheap, and usually comes out of these peoples pockets...

just to be clear i was joking i think a gold coin donation is a good idea, hell i will even pay $2 i mean what is $2 at the end of the day, its the same cost as starting up your car, or driving 4km's

Awesome idea. As a matter of fact these are the only organised cruises that dont have a gold coin donation for a map
