As we can see there are a lot of different views on the subject and consensus does not seem obvious within the club.
Could I also just remind that that we are under a transition period with a New Comittee in place for not even a week.
Having said that, we posted (within 3 days after the new Committee being officially transitioned) a summary of the key actions points we will undertake to address the most important issues under a new section on the forum "Committee Notice Board". Within that post we had--
"3- Membership Matters: Within two weeks (24th March), all Committee members will provide ideas to Paul on how to improve value of the membership for new and current, UK and international members. Respecting the same deadline, we welcome ideas from all club members, which should be sent to the club's Secretary -Augusto, who will then consolidate them all and report back to Paul."
I will take note of all points of view in these thread and put them forward to Paul and the rest of the Committee. Augusto (The O.C.)Secretary - G4 Challenge Owners Club D3 2006 event BN55 WRG LRG4C11 Stages 3 & 4 Bolivia

Welcome to the forum.
The current cost for the club membership is £30/year. We should be re-opening shortly for new membership, so please keep an eye for it.
The Membership Officer is Paul Burt (pjb), so please send him a note if you are interested and have a look at the "Joining the Club" section of the forum for more details.
As you read from this tread we are working towards providing more value to members and we expect to report on that soon.
Hope you will also join us! Augusto (The O.C.)Secretary - G4 Challenge Owners Club D3 2006 event BN55 WRG LRG4C11 Stages 3 & 4 Bolivia
At present all suggestions are being collated and will be discussed and hopefully agreed at the next conference call the beginning of April.
As soon as the club bank account has been sorted, it will be ...... all systems go............ :D ___________________________________________

Obviously we can't see that benifit be we do have a lot to give to the club. Thats why I suggested an associate membership - and plenty of clubs have that facility. In effect it would be a forum use fee for "foreigners". Just make sure we can pay by paypal. Remember 30 quid is $60 dollars and that in real terms to those of us who earn in dollars equates to 60 quid which by any standards is expensive. I know because I am a brit living in the US.
BTW I'm happy to coordinate things in the US for the club if its too much from the UK. Also - this isn't by any means a rant!:D
