Hi Members,
A reminder of a few things happening this weekend.
- June Meeting: Don’t forget that the June meeting this year has been brought forward to June 1st (This coming Sunday) to avoid a long weekend clash that would happen on the 2nd Sunday of the month (our usual meeting day).
- Working Bee: The work to erect the safety fence at the Eastern end of the clubhouse is also scheduled to take place on Sunday commencing at 9am.. Concreting is complete and all of the fencing materials are on site ready to go. So, all hands on deck would be good. We will keep the meeting brief and work it around the working bee lunch break – let’s say about mid-day.
- Membership Renewals: Our Membership Subscriptions are due in June, and this year, we have had quite a lot of expenses in May including our 2025-26 council license fee, fencing materials and concreting, a new printer, a replacement router for the weather cameras due to water damage and the club’s business insurance is also due by June 18th. So, you can see why early payment of subs will be very much appreciated. I will include our bank details below for those wanting to EFT directly to the club’s account, otherwise credit card or cash payments can be made at the club on Sunday. Annual subs this year remain unchanged and are – Full Member $150.00, Social and Junior Members $25.00.
- BBQ Fly-out to Yarawa: Since the last update and after receiving some photos of the water on his property, I have spoken to Peter Marheine and we agreed to talk again after the long weekend (and when his strip is usable again) to set a new date for the Fly-out BBQ.
- Cliffton Fly-in: Today I received the attached flyer regarding the Cliffton Fly-in on June 15th. Thought that it may be of interest to some of our members as it seems to be a popular event.
Here are the Club’s bank details for EFT transactions.
Bank: Westpac Cessnock
BSB: 032 516
Acc No: 12-1379
Acc Name: Hunter Recreational Flying Club
Please include a reference that we can relate back to you.
That is, it for now and I look forward to seeing you on Sunday if you can make it.
Thanks & Regards
