Excellent news brewer and I hope it all comes together for you. Hope we can see you at a DW rally sometime.

i don't want to stand on your coil thats a lot to get through in an hour and half especially with complete strangers mostly.
i will be there and am willing to look for detecting land for club members I'm thinking of mini rallies the Sunday after the monthly meetings that gives time to find a venue.
IE the first one would be found hopefully before the second meeting so the Sunday after would be the first mini rally.
a charge of a few quid to keep the farmer happy paid at the meeting before I'm optimistic that it all pans out as it stands.

THE GREAT ORME DETECTING CLUB ?

[brewermb]

Hi again, it may seem a lot, but if it is done properly ( :)Ha!) it should be over in an hour and a half at the most. We will see, I am presuming there will only be 8 to 10 people  there, if there is a lot more; well then it may be different, and I did say ish.

Nearly there eddythefly!    The Great Orme Detecting Society
   
         The G.O.D.S.   or is that tempting fate ?
             I'll be there and will bring another bod who wants to join but is'nt able to use a P.C.

[eddythefly]

G.O.D.S. sounds good or maybe THE VIKING G.O.D.S i believe orme means serpents head in Norse or viking talk.

when we set ours up, we charged those attending a £1 per meeting, until the AGM [in march], when the annual fee was set. This meant that if ppl didn't like what they were getting then it had only cost them a £1.

you also need to think of essentials such as
club logo,
membership cards, is there a trial period period before full membership?
publicity,
application for membership forms,
code of conduct for all members
insurance - NCMD or FID -- club membership through NCMD is cheaper than if u were paying as an individual

if you want any more help - feel free to PM me

I think we will concentrate on getting the club formed, then think about the legalities, which I know we will have to, I will be in touch. Thanks.
