Membership Renewals - Action Required
Happy New Year
This year the renewal process is a little different in that we need all primary members (whoever pays for your subscriptions in your household) to confirm their renewal online.
For your renewal to be processed we need you to do two things as soon as possible:
# Set up payment details for GoCardless - which is replacing our current Direct Debit system, all members must do this.
# Confirm your membership subscription tariff in line with the 2023 Scale of Charges.
We have a step-by-step guide on how to do this on the website here.

Bosham Warm Spaces
We would like to open the clubhouse up as a warm space on Thursday afternoons between 13:00 and 15:00 but need just a few more volunteers to make this possible.
Even if you can only do one afternoon between now and the end of February, RC Cruisers (rccruisers@boshamsailingclub.com) would love to hear from you.
