Hey Fellow Dees,

I'm currently looking at changing my membership this season to a Family Membership. This is to cover myself, my partner, my son and my child that is due in a few weeks.

Currently we have two membership holders which are my son(Little Devil) and myself(Country Membership). Does MFC get a good cut from family memberships. Would it be similar to buying four seperate memberships?

Also, a minor concern is that I have been a member for 9 years, does that mean that my 'record' is kept in tact?

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

I'm really looking forward to the new era in 2009.

Go Dees!

Not sure about that, but you can awlays ring the club up and ask.

Gippy, best to check with Membership and if you can talk to Jennifer Watt, to make sure your continuity of membership is retained.

We have a family membership and this includeds 4 juniors. I have 3 boys and we use the 4th membership to take other kids to the footy to encourage them to sign up. It is purely a case of comparing the cost of 2 adult memberships plus 2 junior ones to the cost of a family one and if on a par a family one is good as helps the MFC identify you a members with long term potential and to be seated in family friendly areas etc.

Happy to discuss futher if you want. What part of Gippsland are you in? Are you in toch with the Gippsland Demons?? Cheers

Thanks Tony,

I guess the thing I'm really want to know is does it class it as 1 membership for the club or 4 or 6 memberships for the club.

If its 6 then everyone should get a family package... ;-)

I was told by the membership department after asking about my family m'ship, that because I have 5 involved, that 5 counts towards the tally.. . Hope this helps.

Membership Tally

2009 Members - 18,940

This time last year - 16,166

This is great news. Obviously the club can't become complacent on these efforts and will need to keep the membership drive going.

Will we make the 30,000 members mark? That is the question....
