Parking Stickers

Please be advised that the SoPYC Member parking stickers were not mailed out with the new Membership cards this year. The print company we used had a problem with their printing machine and could not supply them to us in time. We have received them now. They are at the Club reception for you to collect. If you can not collect yours, please let Claire know on 9364 5844 or reception@sopyc.com.au and she will mail one out to you.

New Annual Voucher Option

The Management Committee has resolved to introduce an annual payment for the House Support Scheme (vouchers) to accommodate members who are absent from the Club for work or travel purposes for extended periods. With the introduction of this option, exemptions from voucher charges will no longer be available as members opting to pay their vouchers annually will have a full twelve months to use their vouchers.

To accommodate this new arrangement for the new 2018-19 financial year, members must register their intention to take up this offer by no later than 1 August 2018. This will be an annual “opt-in” option and from 2019 the option will be processed at the same time as the standard quarterly vouchers on the 30th June each year.

The applicable membership categories are:
  • Centreboard 26 years+
  • Family
  • Ordinary 26 years+
  • Ordinary Half
  • Social
For members exercising the option, $460 (4 x $115) will be charged on the 1st August and the vouchers will expire on 30 June the following year. The annual voucher option will not be available for use until they are fully paid.
Members may register to take up this option by emailing finance@sopyc.com.au
Any quarterly vouchers charged on 30 June 2018 prior to the new option being taken up will be credited back (less amounts spent) to the member's account.

Several of our regulars are “between boats” at the moment and have used that unfortunate situation to the benefit of their colleagues. Greg and Valerie Power stand out …
