WHEN SETTING YOUR CLUBS JOINING AND ANNUAL MEMERSHIP FEES

Committees are reminded to ensure that the joining fees that they are charging new members are justifiable. It is important that a club be able to cover all of its expenses and whilst we recommend a club maintain one year’s worth of operating costs as a surplus, many clubs can become cashed up quite quickly if the joining fees are not being spent for the benefit of the members. It would be worthwhile for all Treasurers to review their joining fees as part of their budget process. Member’s annual fees should also reflect costs to cover annual subscription of the official Probus magazine. Probus Centre will be happy to assist in determining the appropriate joining fees for your club.
