Annual Subs Increase.

[daveyc2k2]

Our full annual subs have gone up 3% from £1300 to £1339 with £100 bar tab staying that same.

Luckily as I'm under 30 my subs have gone from £650 to £669.50 with £100 bar tab.

It's a lot but worth it bearing in mind the quality of the course and the improvement works planned.

Ours are staying the same and there's an EGM this week to discuss what to do about joining fees. I think they're going to be scrapped.

Be interested to see how that pans out, as I am currently paying my joining fee over 5 years. With any luck, I won't have to pay it any more and that'll see an actual reduction in my subs for next year

That is what happened to me. When I joined the joining fee was deferred for a year and was then to be paid over 3 years. At the end of my first year they scrapped the joining fee so I didn't have to pay

Its even better now with a few more gentle alterations to bunkers and tees here and there , work is going on to the right side of the 1st with bunkers being redesigned , play it again next year ................EYG

Ours have reduced by just over 10% from £780 to £700, however I'm still in the 30 to 35 years old bracket so I'm only paying £500

Seems like the only fair thing to do, in my view. We shall see...

News from last nights AGM subs for full members up £10 all others stay the same for the year. Im still on the student rates but if i was on the full membership i wouldnt be that bothered by £10.

Up £10 - hardly worth bothering about - what are your annual subs now then (for full member)

Lovely views from your clubhouse btw...

Why only full members? That would go down like a lead ballon at our place.

Just checked - £192.50 for full adult male membership - wow! Who paid for the clubhouse with subs as low as these?

 

[bobcat]

Expecting ours to go up £25 to £700...

Looking to scrap the 6 day membership

Looking at this thread I can't believe the amount some pay...

Problem with us is we have pretty poor facilities with not owning the land the club house sits on...therefore it has been left to deteriorate over the last fifty years...with no long term plan for the club...it doesn't look good..

Shame because in my biased opinion the course is one of the best in the Bolton / bury area...

Ive no idea, was unable to attend the AGM due to work but when the notes from the meeting are released i'll find out.

Oops - looked at wrong bit of your website. I looked under About Us> Join Us and that took me to a subscriptions page - but I never spotted they were for August to December 2013 (with free use of course July - interesting twist). Where are your subs for 2013-2014 hiding as no other info on About Us> Join Us

Still. £393 a year is pretty wow!

What us 'rich' sods down here have to fork out for our golfing pleasure.

Yeah it seems they have taken the yearly subs down at the moment. Obviously must just be trying get folk in for the winter, hadnt seen that deal before now.

Its a nice track and great value for money for me.
