I've been a member of Manawatu branch for 24yrs. I still remember my first meeting and thought wtf is going on here lots of arguing and bitching at a monthly meeting. But wait until you got to an AGM holy f@#k. But i met some good guys my age and went hunting. Now that I'm one of the older faces and on commitee when I see a new face I say gidday. We have changed our meeting to guest speakers with 5 mins of club/commitee business. Commitee is there to sort the day to day club stuff the members don't want to know about rates and power bills. We have picked up a LOT of new members through Hunts courses range shooting and interesting speckers and a bloody good newsletter. We also try to do a hunt every month.
It's the not what you get from a club it's what you put into it......
Ps: Gong shoot tomorrow![]()
