SUBSCRIPTION PAYMENTS FOR 2021 - from the manager
|
|
A very Happy New Year from all at LIBC. Let's hope that it's a kinder outlook than 2020! With stricter covid measures now in place Nationally, the club will remain closed until further notice
The club will not be viable enough to re-open until we are in a position to return to League play and all of our staff will remain on furlough whilst the club remains closed - which eases our financial obligations in the short term.
We are of course at the stage when annual membership renewal is due. It will be a huge help to the club if we can count on our members rejoining for 2021. At a time when we obviously have no income at all, the payment of subscriptions will ensure that we have some income enough to pay our overheads through to re-opening and set us up for a full scale return to competitive bowling as and when appropriate. The club will be in a satisfactory position financially and we can begin to recruit again and promote our great sport.
We have sent reminders by email and if we haven't got an email address for you on record, you may receive a letter over the next few weeks to remind you that we are taking subscriptions for 2021 and let you know how you can pay.
Unfortunately our card payment facilities do not extend to payments over the telephone.
We realise only too well that you have all had very little bowling for your money last year but we do hope you will stick with us as we look towards returning to some sort of normality very soon.
You can be assured we are planning for a full scale return from the Summer onwards (and hopefully much sooner if circumstances allow)!
PLAYING MEMBERSHIPS (both FULL and SENIOR) are all £50.00 this year and will be reviewed next year again.
JUNIOR MEMBERS remain £1.00
*SOCIAL MEMBERSHIPS remain at £15.00
LOCKERS remain at £5.00
*As soon as it is safe to do so, the club will reinstate BINGO on Wednesdays and Saturday evenings - we know you are missing this!
There are now TWO ways in which members can pay subscriptions:
1. Direct Bank Transfer
Contact Danny via email (danny@lincolnibc.co.uk) or telephone the usual club number 01522 526237 (which is now diverted) and request bank account details. If you pay this way please send a further email when you pay so that we can track payment via our statement. Your annual membership form will still require signing for data protection purposes but will be filed and can be signed upon re-opening.
2. By Cheque in the Post
Post or drop off a cheque through the letterbox at the club. Postal applications can be sent to Lincoln IBC, Hall Drive, Lincoln, LN6 7SW and will be dealt with the following Wednesday or Saturday.
Members can pick up their receipts and cards when we re-open and sign their annual membership renewal forms which will be filed at the bar awaiting signature.
If anyone has any further concerns or queries, please call 01522 526237 and you can speak to Danny (the phone is currently being redirected).
We cannot thank our members enough for their support. A lot of people have donated monies twice - once during lockdown between March and July and again recently in addition to their subscriptions! We are so grateful and indeed overwhelmed by the financial support which has seen donations reach the staggering total of £20,169.40
We really do appreciate every penny that has been raised by our wonderful members.
If donors are tax payers and give us permission to quote their name and address to HMRC, we can claim Gift Aid on donations received which will help us further.
Our thanks again to you all for your generosity and understanding and we look forward to seeing you all again as soon as possible.
We look forward to seeing everyone as soon as it's safe to do so. Watch this space!
DANNY

Belated Over 60s Finals 2019/20
- by Danny Brown
|
|
The Over 60s Section is determined to finish last season's competitions and a finals programme has been worked out to accommodate all the outstanding competition finals carried over from March 2020.
Some of the competitors are choosing not to play bowls whilst Covid-19 is an issue, and we must respect their right to do so. To get around such issues it has been necessary to make slight adjustments to the teams/formats in some of the triples and fours competitions which will obviously be for this season only.
In accordance with the Club's recent contingency statement, should we be forced t ....... ....... .......
