The Club encourage cashless transactions..... why?

• It's quick and easy – no need to have to arrange to catch up with the Treasurer
• Can be completed at any time of the day or night, when it suits the individual
• Lets a person pay via debit/credit card or by PayPal
• Suitable for the PC, iPad/tablet, iPhone/Android mobile phone
• Event entry and Membership payments are instant and, for members, the member record is updated immediately
• Errors are minimised and all the information provided is legible
• It is transparent, secure and payments don't go "missing" - it is the online equivalent of a proper (and "undoctored") paper trail
• Email notification is sent to the Club the instant a payment is completed
• Our volunteer Club Officers are not loaded up with additional (and time-consuming) work
• It is seamless and reduces the operating costs of the Club
• It just makes sense and is COVID-Safe!

Can I get to Lenswood using public transport?

• Alas, no - the closest public transport is a bus to Lobethal - and it is not available on weekends. (The alternative? -  a friend / flexicar / Uber / Ola.)
