NOTICE TO ALL POTENTIAL MEMBERS Many of you have indicated that you are keen to become members of the Household Cavalry Association Australasia when this was first suggested. Numerous steps had to be taken to ensure that such a project would have the support and approval from the hierarchy, and that we had a significant number of potential members to make this venture viable. We have received approval from The Silver Stick, Col Patrick Tabor and currently we have approximately 40 – 50 potential members on record across Australia and New Zealand. In order to proceed to the next level we need to do a proper ‘head count’ to show the strength of the potential membership. I have compiled a ‘Potential Membership Notification’ form and would appreciate it very much if this could be completed and returned to me as soon as possible by all who are keen to become members. You will only need to fill out the ‘Personal and Service Details’ at this point. This is purely to indicate your intention and to indicate which Regiment you served in. I am very aware that there are those who would like to be members but do not have access to a computer or email. I have, therefore, inserted a section at the bottom of the form for you to indicate your preference of correspondence (e.g. email or via postage). You will note that there is no mention of membership fees on this form, the reason being that no membership fee has been set but I can assure you that the fees will be minimal and similar to those of other branches. Many of you have indicated your thoughts on fee charges and I have taken this into consideration. Donations will be more than appreciated as well. Please do not send any money at this time. As soon as we receive the completed forms and have a better indication of numbers, a formal membership application form will be forwarded indicating membership fees, details of payment and other membership benefits. It would be appreciated if this information and the form could be passed on to those who do not have access to computers and are unable to access any of the Bulletin Boards. Looking forward to hearing from you. Yours sincerely Jenny Bobeszko Hon Secretary 07/07/2008
