Ladies and
Gents,
Time to remind ALL annual members that your subscription
for 2012 IS NOW
DUE.
Subscriptions are
due in
January irrespective of which month you joined the
Association
This year it is
again £12 - 50p. So please send a
Postal Order or Cheque for this amount made out to
RAFPA,
to me at:-
24
TRENDLEWOOD PARK, STAPLETON, BRISTOL, BS16 1TE.
Last year I had to
write over 400 letters reminding members that their subscriptions were overdue,
many
of these letters
included reminders for 2010 subs which had not been paid. At one time last year
there was
nearly three
thousand pounds owed for annual subscriptions. If you expect to receive the
Griff, Provost
Parade and any other
Association Publications please ensure you pay your subs this month. The cost of
this
postage was nearly
£150 - 00. This does not include postage paid by Branch Officers supporting me
in
chasing up
non-payers.
So please co-operate
and and send me your subscription without delay. Many thanks to the fifteen
members
who have already
paid for 2012.
For those Annual Members who have not yet increased
their Standing Order, please ensure you pay the difference without delay. Some
are still paying only £6.00 and many others just £10.00.
Best
wishes to all for a Peaceful, Happy and Healthy New Year.

Treasurer
