STOW MARIES PARISH COUNCILNot quite another successful Year for the 100 CLUB in 2023
An update of 100 CLUB news for 2023.
I have no way of knowing how many people, 100 CLUB members or not, read the updates to the CLUB news but those who do so will have noticed a lack of updates during the last twelve months. As some readers may know, a number of issues including health and time pressures are the reason for this and I am having to reduce my workload dramatically.
One of the reductions is to to gradually pass on the reins of running the 100 CLUB Prize winners will have noticed that Kath Swan, as well as collecting some renewal subscriptions a few weeks ago, is now forwarding the congratulatory letters with the cheques. More changes will follow at appropriate times but I must stress that no changes will affect the way in which the CLUB will deal with the drawing of winning numbers or the forwarding of cheques to the winners.
At the time of writing this update to the 100 CLUB news, it is my pleasure to report that once again, members have responded to the subscription renewal request in a very supportive way. However, in these economically-challenging times, it will not be surprising to learn that the CLUB does not presently have a 100% membership so if anyone would like to buy one or more of the spare subscriptions, please let me know. There will, of course, be a reduction of £1 for each month that has already passed in the present year. SO, IF YOU PAY FOR A SUBSCRIPTION BEFORE 31st MARCH, IT WILL COST £10 AND THE NUMBER WILL BE IN THE MARCH DRAW!!!!
For the benefit of possible new CLUB members, the yearly (January to December) fee is £12. There is a Draw each month with a £20 first prize, a £10 second prize and a £5 third prize. After the December Draw, a second Draw is made for ONLY those numbers that have not been drawn in the previous twelve Draws.
The Parochial Church Council is very grateful for the continued support of the 100 CLUB and wishes Good Luck to members in the forthcoming Draws.
May I pass on my personal thanks to all past and present CLUB members for their support over the years since I introduced Stow Maries to the CLUB.
