Membership Questionnaire

 

To all members of Gordon’s Bay Yacht Club

Your Executive Committee has been looking at the membership list to get an idea of what the membership profile is. Some members own boats, some don’t, some come regularly to use the club facilities, some we never see, some are happy with the status quo and some very obviously want things done differently, so … here is your chance to let us know how you feel about things.

 

We’ve put together a questionnaire which we hope you will return to us, completed. The questions are what we have dreamed up, but if there is anything else you want to say please put in a comment at the bottom of the form. We would like to get a return of over 80%, so we are going to be active about this!

 

There are good reasons for this effort as we really wish to make the club a delightful experience for all members (and their guests). Also, some things are changing – e.g. smoking legislation. We have had to ban all smoking in the club (due to the new legislation and an official compliant). So we need to know whether the membership wants us to go to the expense of creating a smoking area that complies (the cost of this alone could be over R 100 000).

 

As encouragement for you to complete the questionnaire, we will provide you with a free beer or equivalent on Thursday 11 February 2010 on return of the completed form. We will also hold a lucky draw that evening at 19h00. All completed forms will be in the draw. The 4 winners will each receive a R 150 bar voucher.

Thoughts, Jokes and Fun Stuff.

 

Thoughts:

  • We attract what we fear, and what we fear strongly we will experience.

  • My life is in the shape it’s in because of me and the choices I’ve made, or failed to make. The world is in the shape it’s in due to all our choices. Let’s all start making the right choices.

  • The storm will pass and the sky will clear.

  • Accidents are very unfortunate; but are they unfortunate according to the agenda of the soul?

  • Our relationships are a reflection, a mirror, of our relationship with ourselves.

Jokes: 

  • Children in the front seat of a car can cause accidents. Accidents in the back seat of a car can cause children.

  • An Arab was sitting next to Paddy on a plane. Paddy ordered a whiskey. The stewardess asked the Arab if he'd like a drink. He replied in disgust: “I'd rather be raped by a dozen whores than let liquor touch my lips!” Paddy handed his drink back and said “Me too, I didn’t know we had a choice!”

  • How do you recognise a blonde at a funeral? She’s the one trying to catch the bouquet.

  • Wife: “I wish I was a newspaper, so I'd be in your hands all day.” Husband: “I too wish that you were a newspaper, so I could have a new one everyday.”

  • Why are ladies baths always so clean? Because they have their own Creepy Crawly... the paracuda!
