TRIP CHARGES, DONATIONS & CLUB MEMBERSHIP
2011 - 2012 season
We are a
Tramping Club, (not a commercial operator), and as such DoC
insist that we run run our trips "at cost".
For the coming season we have reduced our charges as close to "cost" as
we safely can, and this is the "Basic Cost", referred to in each trip
costing as set out on the "Trip Costs" page on this web site.
To be eligible
to participate in the trip(s) that we organise, people need to be financial
members of our Tramping Club, which costs $ 35 per adult, $ 25 school child, or
$ 95 for a family.
You will
realise that there is a huge amount of voluntary work provided by the 50 or so
completely unpaid volunteers who organise and lead the trips. We hope that
participants will be aware of this, and be generous enough to make a donation
to the Tramping Club, (a registered Non Profit Club with the Charities
Commission) we suggest $60 per trip place. At the end of each season, our Constitution
requires us to share any surplus funds equally between the Otago Youth
Adventure Trust and Milton Rotary Club, (both have Charitable Trust Status),
where it is used principally for Youth projects in Otago and elsewhere. All
Donations are receipted separately, and are eligible for rebate with IRD The
satisfaction that our volunteers get from their efforts is twofold
. Firstly that we are able to provide a low cost adventure to so many
thousands, many of whom would otherwise not have participated in these
wonderful trips, and secondly, that through your donations, we are able to
provide some funds towards our two very worthwhile charitable organisations. We consider that your donation is an
acknowledgment of the services we provide for you. Our volunteer trip Leaders are not
“Guides”, but “Tramping Leaders”, whose aim is to provide “low key”
leadership to ensure the success of each trip.
