Membership & Swim Fee's 2011

Follow the link below to find out the new fees for membership and swimming sessions for the new year.

We are faced with a 20% increase in pool hire and lifeguard cost in 2011 as well as a 17% increase in the asa fees.

The session fees at KSC have not changed for 3 years and we only implemented a marginal increase in the asa fees for 2010.

The club and committee have tried to keep our 2011 fees as low as possible.

However increases in both are now unavoidable. We appreciate your understanding on this subject.

MEMBERSHIP RENEWALS

Please note in January we will be asking you to renew your membership.

.

Increase in fees

From the beginning of January 2011 the club will be charged extra for pool hire and the A.S.A will be increasing their membership fees.
We want to give you advance notice that we will have to raise our fees but rest assured we will try hard to keep the costs of membership and swim sessions as low as we can. At the time of writing we are not sure of the exact rise we need to implement. Please check the blog for an update nearer January. (Fees to swim have not increased for the last 3 years, and the cost of membership has only increased in line with the additional fees the ASA charge us over the last 3 years)

Kimberley S.C Website

The committee of the club asks that if possible you sign up to the Kimberley Swimming Club Blog on the website to keep up to date with all the latest happenings at the club – we currently have 80 members signed up out of a membership of over 400, In the New Year there will only be a handful of ‘paper’ newsletters available. If you don’t want to receive updates we ask that you at least check the blog for all the latest news.

We are also looking into ways of communicating with you by txt message in extreme situations ( similar to how schools txt you ) i.e like the recent cancellation of the Wednesday evening session doe to the weather.
