SAFA Skysailor Magazine

31 September | October 2023 SKY SAILOR Our sports need all of us to maintain mem- bership, and keep flying, to ensure our future. Thanks those that donate their time and effort to the success of our sports; the club and regional committee members, those that organise many events around the nation, those supporting our safety system, and also the many unsung volunteers that contribute to our sports in myriads of ways, either on the hill, at the field, or at home. Membership fees Annual SAFA membership fees are set by the Board. Absent board direction, fees are adjusted in accordance with the trailing CPI at 1 September each year.
