Subject: Skywings sites - membership
With the logistical problem we have in trying to
get the Garden Route System up and running it may be easier to make the
following sites Skywings members only and solve all the logistical problems
like bank account , paperwork , and new documents to be made .
My suggestion is we ask the Beach Hotel ,
Gerrickes Point , Serpentine and Goosevalley to become Skywings members only
and that persons who want to fly there must join the club . Each member will
get a sticker and a card they can apply online and pay into our account . We will
keep the funds from Foreigners and non locals for Maintenance and site
improvements . Just keep a separate ledger to track how we spend that money .
We will also allocate a percentage of budget for Sedgeview and Map of Africa so
as to be fair . The rest of the sites will remain as they are now . This way we
raise monies and its simple without legal wrangle of trying to form another
company , body and then trying to raise money for a fund .
Please think about my suggestion and get back to
me by Tuesday with suggestions or objections . No replies will considered
agreement then I will see landowners on Wednesday and get agreements drawn up .
The Garden Route circus of Maurits , Cobus
Malema have suddenly wanted a meeting 3rd December, with just 1 weeks
notice to basically decide the fate of the Garden Route paragliding while only
representing 10- 20% of the Garden Route ? Do you want us to attend ? I
personally say we will send a rep . or two but don’t commit to anything just
politely listen and carry on with what we want to do .I have a feeling they up
to something again ; hence the short notice .
We have now basically paid up members about 43
but there is more that will join and who were members and have just not paid .
I reckon another 7-10 members will join shortly . We are the biggest club in
the country with a active plan and a purpose I don’t want to get involved again
with guys that want to derail this process of one big happy club and a fair
system for the majority . I just don’t see Maurits or Cobus buying into our
club and that ok as well let them form another club join Roys club or Rolands
that’s the way of the world we cant make everyone happy or like us .
I just want to encourage every committee member
to do all you can to build this club , criticism is good but until you have
done your best and really put some man hours and invested some of your soul
into this selfless task you cant be to critical . When the club has reached a
certain critical state then all things we be running smoothly until then its
going to hard thankless graft . We can with a bit of hard work create a lasting
club with a rich history and culture and you can have some pride in doing
something for the community . So lets get of our high horses and shovel shit
for a few months and make a club that stands with pride , dedication and
honor .
Cheers Deon
