Vaccine Passports - What we Know
25 November 2021
First the disclaimer: We are making a lot of assumptions here and we have tried our best to point these out, but please understand that this will depend entirely on the final rules that the Government sets in place.

As a special offer coming into Christmas, Laithwaites are offering Clubs New Zealand members a dozen premium wines & 2 stemless glasses for just $10.99 a bottle. It’s a fantastic opportunity to stock the wine rack right in time for the silly season.

Annual Membership Updates will be hitting inboxes next month
18 November 2021
Early next month all clubs will receive an email with a link for you to complete your annual membership update. This year we have made some big changes to the annual update form to simplify and speed up the process.
As with previous update forms, this one will be online and the link to access the form will be emailed to each club early in December. We will be asking clubs to complete the membership declaration and reciprocal rights sections only, so the form has reduced from many, many fields down to six.
