Hello to all the clubs in the
network.
Its that time of year for your club to update
your contact & committee details using the new updated annual return forms (which your club should have now recieved by e-mail),
and to pay your clubs PLI or annual subscription.
PLI, please use this message
as a reminder that your clubs PLI, (if your club has PLI through the GCN that
is), is due for renewal at the end of this month, your PLI cover runs out on the
30th September, please make sure that we receive your payment by that
date.
Some good news on the
PLI cost, the cost for 2013/2014 is £89.00, only about pound
more expensive than last years, so that is great news in these times of
financial hardships. If your club does
not have PLI through the GCN, then use this message as a reminder that the
annual subscription of £20 is due at the end of the
month.
How to pay: You can send a cheque or crossed postal
order payable to 'The Gaming Club Network' to me at the address
shown on page 2 of the GCN Annual Return. Make sure that you include your clubs
name so we know who has sent us a payment, otherwise we cannot bank the
cheque.
Or, I can accept payment by
Paypal on behalf of the
GCN. My Paypal account is:
awb1@btinternet.com
However please note that to make payment for PLI by Paypal you
will need to add £3.50 to cover the Paypal fees (making a total of
£92.50), or send it to us as a Gift, so we do not get
charged the fees.
If you are just paying the annual subscription either send
as gift or add £1.00 to cover the fees.
Please make sure that you include a club name on the payment so I know which
club its come from.
Annual return, please fill in
and return to me at the postal address indicated on the second page of the form,
however you can scan and e-mail me the annual return/poll if that is easier.
Please note that if you have had an AGM and your committee/venue/club contact
details have changed, we need to know so that we do not lose contact with your
club.
Along with the annual
return, I have also included a Club Poll/Review document, we are looking at what
clubs are playing to pass onto our partner companies. Using this information we
may be able to offer clubs in the network further offers and promotions like the
current Warlord Games offer. If your club is unaware of the current fabulous
promotions from Warlord Games, Mantic Games and Westwind Productions, then for
some reason you have either not seen or read the newsletters we sent out over
the last year. However do not despair, if you have not seen the promotion then
get in touch with me, my email address is in this message and on the annual
return and I send you information how to take up the offers.
New clubs in the network, if your club has sent me a
full application since late March 2013, you do need to fill out and send this
annual return one back, unless any of your details have
changed. However, I would request that you contact me so that I can check that
all communication is working efficiently.
Exemptions, if for what ever reason we have agreed to
Waive the annual subscription for your club, please just get in touch with me so
I know communication is working, we are not asking for any payment from your
club in this message.
All correspondence related to this message should be sent to me, or if
there is anything that you are not sure about then please feel free to get in
touch.
awb1@btinternet.com
I very much look forward to hearing back from all of you in due
course.
Very best regards
Anthony Barnes
