Governance.
Hawke’s Bay Naturist Club is a registered Incorporated Society owned and run by our members. General meetings allow members to elect our Officers and committee, decide policy and discuss their ideas and concerns.
Management.
Our committee meets monthly and whenever else necessary to manage day to day club affairs. All members are welcome to attend these meetings except when confidential matters are being discussed.
Officers.
The Officers:
President : Nick
Secretary : Wendy
Treasurer : Kay
Other members have responsibility for Grounds, Pool, Clubhouse and Lodge, Public Relations, Monthly Newsletter and Social Organising.
Social Activities.
We organise regular parties in our Clubhouse, Barbecues, outings and beach days. Some of these are dressed occasions when we can invite interested friends.
Sundays.
Members and visitors are welcome at Rapere at any time but Sunday is a popular day when you will find many members enjoying the facilities and friendship at Rapere. Right from our first years it has been the custom to gather in the clubhouse at 3pm on Sundays for a cuppa and a chat, so a roster is run in summer to do the necessary catering and cleaning.
Working Bees.
Our grounds have been developed since 1963 almost entirely by the hard work of our own members. To keep subscriptions reasonable we have to do maintenance and development projects the same way. No one is compelled to help, but most find that pitching in to help is very rewarding. The more you put in, the more you get out of your club.
