I hope that you are able to enjoy the continuing sunny weather.
You will have noted from a previous message that at the last committee meeting held on 15th July, the committee were informed that 176 members were not paying the current subscription rate of ten pounds. Since that announcement, four members have now paid the correct subscription rate; thus, there are still 172 members who are not paying the correct rate. This equates to a considerable income loss.
If you are a member who is currently not paying the correct fee, I would ask that you update the payment by using one of the following options:
(i) If you pay by standing order, ensure that the payment of ten pounds is payable on 1st April 2027.
(ii) If you have been underpaid for this year, please use either of the following payment options:
(iii) To pay the owed amount online, use the following details: Account Name: KFRSRA. Sort Code 53-81-51. Account Number 01834819. Reference Code Surname/Subs.
(iii) If you wish to pay by cheque, please make it payable to KFRSRA and post to R. G. Goodwin, Esq., 13 Orchard View, Broadoak, Canterbury, Kent, CT2 0FD.
A reminder that the Sunday lunches continue the next being on Sunday, 16th August, at the Wheatsheaf Northdown Park Road, Margate, CT9 3LN, with the closing date being 9th August. Details of future lunches and the Marlowe Theatre pantomime can be found on the website under the heading of Events 2026.
You will be aware that currently the position of membership secretary is still vacant. As a result of this, to lessen that workload, in organising the Sunday lunches, as of next year, only six venues will be used.
Sunday lunches will continue on a monthly basis, and the committee asks for you to continue to support these events. Full details can be found on the website.
