Joining or Renewing Your Membership

1. How to join

First Step: Become an associate member

Associate membership and insurance cover is available for anyone over 18 who would like to “try us out”. Associate membership costs $30.00 and is valid for three walks, after which you qualify for ordinary/ full membership of the club. You must be a financial member prior to participating in any club event.

If you have not signed up for membership on the website prior to your first walk, you must complete the risk form and hand it to the walk leader on the day.

If you join from September to March, your membership expires on 31 August of the current period. If you join from April to August, your membership expires on 31 August of the following year. When your membership expires, you can renew it by paying the membership fee and completing the acknowledgement of risk form on the renewal page.
