THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING AND MEMBERSHIP PAYMENTS

As previously reported, because of the effects of earlier Covid 19 lockdown, our financial year was brought into line with that of England Athletics and our AGM was moved to each April. This year our AGM is programmed for 12th April but due to Covid 19 lockdown regulations it will probably be by ZOOM meeting - find more from Jason Waite and Craig Gunn elsewhere. When we moved our AGM from October 2020 to April 2021 membership of existing members was also extended to April 2021.

So membership renewal becomes due from 1st April 2021 but can be paid from 1st March 2021 at current rates as shown on our website Membership page.....

"NEW Membership
Under 20 years old..................£60/year

Seniors....................................£70/year
Membership Renewal
Under 20 years old..................£45/year

Reduced rate Family Membership is available. A family must consist of at least three related members. One, but not more than two, must be a Senior member; and at least one must be from a younger age group. Each individual’s appropriate fee is reduced by £15 for a Senior member and £10 for a younger member to produce the “Family Membership” fee.
Here a “year” means the year from 1st April 2020 to 31st March 2021. All athletes are expected to register with England Athletics through the Club."

The Annual General Meeting And Membership Payments.

As usual members will have a period of payment grace, now until 31st May to renew their membership, after that date they will, as normal, be treated as having resigned.

As agreed at the December 2020 Committee meeting the fourteen members who joined from the end of September 2020 will only be expected to pay a total of £15 which will be used to renew their England Athletics registration. For their information these fourteen members are...
Senior Men: Mark Anderson, Chris Auld, Ian Dixon, Andrew James Fannen, Stephen Jackson, Andrew Newby,
Michael Rodenby
Senior Women: Kim Burns, Linda Mudford
U20 Women: Shenali Scott
U15 Girl: Scarlett Elisabeth Johnson
U13 Girl: Heidi Cooke
U11 Girl: Lexie Brown, Molly Melia

Those of us who can remember "normal" times will know that membership fees were received in the form of cash or cheques by human beings at the AGM or at the Club on a Tuesday or Thursday night. In the meantime until normal times return we can use bank transfer to the Sunderland Harriers account code 556111 36490873, or send a cheque made out to Sunderland Harriers & AC to our Hon. Treasurer at 19 Drayton Road, Seaburn, Sunderland SR6 8HE.

It is important that our hard-working Treasurer knows who the payments are for, particularly if it is for a Family membership.
