Setting of subs for the 2007/2008 financial year:

It was proposed to keep the WCG subs at the previous rate of $20 for a full member. A second, third, and fourth member if they are in the same household will pay $10 per person, if there are children attending school there is no charge (this does not include NZSS membership). Any unwaged club members are to pay subs of $10.

The rate subs was proposed by the club president Simon Davis and seconded by Robert Sowerbutts.
