General Business:

  • No update has been received by the treasurer. Most club members have paid their subs. There are only a few outstanding subs outstanding. NZSS require another payment for fees that have been paid to the club.
  • It is a great loss Sue Parker resigned as Sumpthink Editor and from the committee.
  • A decision was made not to purchase the domain name that was on offer and to stay with the current domain name.
  • The club is in need of new helmets for new club members or people who would like to try caving. There need of a Childs SRT harness has been raised before. The club should contact Pub Charities to see if they can assist with helping to obtain funding for equipment for potential and new club members.
  • Steve liked the Tee shirts that were made by the CCG for their Club Anniversary and thought it may be a good idea to investigate the costs of creating our own club tee shirt.
  • Steve raised the idea of creating more professional posters for the club. Steve to investigate further.
