OTU Membership Renewal – Reminder

 

 

 

 

OTU ASSOCIATION                                                                  26 September 2023

NATIONAL COMMITTEE

 

MEMBERSHIP RENEWAL FY 2023/2024 – REMINDER

 Gentlemen,

Our current 2023/2024 financial membership is 524, a long way from the 655 financial members we had at the end of last FY.  Further, the rate of financial membership renewals has slowed considerably.  Interestingly, our database reveals that there are 208 members who were financial over the last two years, but who have not as yet renewed their financial membership for 2023/2024.

If you have received this letter you are currently unfinancial and we would be interested to know if something has happened to change your mind about belonging to the Association.   Or, is it simply a matter of ‘old timers disease’ kicking in or, in the vernacular of some 55 years ago, you have been ‘slack and idle’.

Should you wish to renew your membership a Membership Renewal Form is attached.  Three payment options are available when renewing membership:

  • Complete the Membership Renewal Form, attach a cheque and send it to our Treasurer,
  • Use the information of the Membership Renewal Form to pay by Direct Debit.
  • Access the website, www.otu.asn.au and pay by PayPal.

If you are paying by Direct Debit or PayPal and haven’t recently updated your personal details on the website could you please take some time to do so.

It would be appreciated if we could receive your membership renewal by 30 Octobe1 2023.

If you are no longer interested in being a member of the Association, please return the Membership Renewal Form, with the appropriate box notated accordingly.

Cheers.
