Someone had to pay for the current crossfire banners /signage etc.

I think a small yearly contribution as suggested for membership and to purchase club related items is well overdue. I'm certain that most crossfire owners attending meets will feel the same.

Fair point Ken, but the decision to purchase such Items was taken without any consultation with members, I know I for one, and there were others, offered to help pay for the banners and such, but all offers were turned down, ?????


To now try and recoup the money spent by charging a membership fee is wrong!! (in my opinion)


Like someone has said, 400 (claimed) members paying £25 = £10,000 per year, that's an awful lot of banners!!! Ok we all know nowhere near that number will pay the £25 (judging by the feed back I'm getting) and it is not going to encourage any more owners to get into their cars and drive to meets! Which always used to be the aim of ukcrossfires.co.uk in the past.


I am slowly resigning myself to the fact that Crossfire owners, in the main, in the UK, have little to no interest in car meets, which is a real shame!!!
