NZ Unicycle Federation Memberships: Re-opening
Many of you have been waiting patiently whilst we rebuilt the website and the online membership form. As you all know, we are hosting UNICON XV, The 15th Unicycle World Championships and Convention. This is a great chance to grow the sport of unicycling in New Zealand and show the rest of the world what we do! If you’d like to help put NZ Unicycling on the map, please support your national unicycling body (that’s us), by renewing your subscription to the NZ Unicycle Federation.
To kickstart our new membership drive, we’ve extended all memberships to next year. All past members are asked to update their membership details, and we will automatically extend subscriptions to 31/10/2010.
As part of the agreement with the organisers for the NZ Unicycle Weekend 2008, we have also given included membership to the NZ Unicycle Federation to everyone who attended that event. This will be current to 31 March 2010 also. If you were at NZ Uni weekend 08, just fill in the online registration form and email back to us.
And finally, if you are planning on attending NZ Unicycle Weekend 2009, over Queens B’day, your registration fee will cover for NZ Unicycle Federation subscription until Queens B’day 2010. We will get your membership details at the NZ Uni weekend.
The NZ Unicycle Federation AGM is held at every NZ UNI weekend, and it is a requirement for you to be a member in order to cast your votes or to stand in for an executive position. But that’s easy, because you become a member by attending the event.
See you all in Palmerston Nth on Queens Birthday weekend!
