Collection Week

Collection WeekCollection Week starts on Saturday 31st October.

Marti Simmons will be at the surf club this Sunday morning with all of the collection area maps. If you would like a specific area get in quick!!!

Every member (Active, Active Reserve, Long Service, Life Member, Associate, Nipper family) is strongly encouraged to participate in Appeal Week.

Our Appeal Week efforts have been gradually dwindling over the last couple of years & we need to take this important fundraiser more seriously. Last season we were lucky to collect $3,000, where amounts well in excess of $5,000 is the historical norm. We have ever-increasing costs that have to be covered – electricity, water, insurance, equipment repair & replacement, etc. As an indication, we have to raise $22,000 this season to replace our ATV – we’ve currently got $8,500.

It is strongly recommended that you conduct your collection on the Saturday (31/10) or the Sunday (1/11), failing that, after 4pm on one of the following weekdays. Essentially, you should be knocking on doors when there is the highest likelihood of people being home.

Thanks in advance for your cooperation. The entire club benefits from this collection, everyone must contribute.
