Annual Membership Dues
The best way to support our Club is to pay your annual dues. This way we can continue to bring high quality content and experiences through our new website and newsletter.
We have kept the dues price of CHF 40 the same for many years even though our costs to run the club have increased. As always, our volunteer Board Members continue their work without remuneration regardless of the hours they put into the Club.
We thank you for your support! We could not do this without you! |
