Let's talk about money...
We still need to get the club finances sorted out. For the moment,
we'll be paying for events on an ad hoc basis; although we have the
club account set up, the standing orders for regular payment of subs
need to be arranged. I might try to get this done at the next meal - whenever that is, but
I don't think we should start collecting money until after the next
summer weekend, which gives us enough time to organize things properly. The
Club Constitution is partially completed at the moment. Legally
we do need one in order to take advantage of tax-free interest on
our subs as a non-profit making organisation (which can be used to
buy more booze for the weekends!). We'll talk about this more the next time we meet, and perhaps draw a final version up on the back of a
napkin, or something.
A Brief History of the Club
The West Tytherley Gentlemens' Club
is a reunion society established in June 2000. The founding event
was Dan's stag weekend, which took place in the small
Hampshire village of West Tytherley - hence the name. Many of the
members attended Guy's & St Thomas' Hospital medical school together,
while others were friends invited to the stag weekend - and an excellent
time was had by all. The purpose of the Club is to arrange annual
reunion events, where gentlemen scholars of good character may drink,
be merry and take part in various frivolous activities such as paintball,
karting and being generally silly. At present the events include a
summer weekend of beer and paintball and a winter meal. Membership
is free and by invitation only. This is a non-profit making organisation;
all subscriptions collected are used to pay for events taking place
in the year of collection, or accumulation of club assets.
