Membership Applications

Our Membership Secretary is Adrian Barnes - ashlettmembership@gmail.com
Initially, it is worth using the email address above to contact Adrian so he is aware of your intended application and can discuss what the club can offer, indicate any potential waiting lists, assess the suitability of your boat for the creek—it is shallow in some areas—and give you an idea of any fees that may be applicable.
If the club is able to meet your needs, it will offer space either on a mooring or within the Compound. Complete the application form, and the process to join will start.
The membership form is available here to download and either email once completed, or print and post to the club address
To see what membership costs please see the Webcollect App / New members for up-to-date fees
This information should help you decide if you want to pursue an application for membership of the club.
-
Membership of Ashlett Sailing Club (ASC) does not guarantee a mooring or pound space. There may be a waiting list.
-
The creek is accessible for about 4 hrs each tide. Shallow draft bilge or lifting keelers are most suited to this environment.
-
You should send completed application forms to the Membership Secretary. We will then invite you to discuss your application with some committee members. We usually conduct these meetings at the clubhouse. At this meeting, we will discuss the facilities you require for your boat and their availability – compound space/ mooring, etc.- and supply the relevant application forms.
-
Concurrently, the Membership Secretary will circulate your name and town/village of residence to the current membership. If there are no formal objections to your application, we will send you a letter accepting you as a first-year probationary member with full access to the club facilities and requesting payment of the relevant fees. Ideally, payment will be online, but if necessary, by cheque, sent to the Membership Secretary.
-
You will be provided with a welcome pack, any relevant forms you may require to apply for a compound or mooring space, and a club security key.
-
When we allocate a facility to you, you will be asked to pay the appropriate fee, again, ideally online or if necessary, by cheque, to the Membership Secretary.
