We herald a new financial year and the start of a new year for ComputerPals Club memberships – cost is $25 for the financial year to 30/6/2026.

BANK TRANSFER (including Electronic Funds Transfer from your bank account and over the counter deposits at your bank or financial organisation)

Record your SURNAME and INITIAL, plus Membership (for membership payment) or Assistance class (for course payment) . For example if Fred Bloggs was paying his membership renewal ($25) the reference would be  – F BLOGGS Membership and the payment to be transferred would be $25.00. If you are enrolling for an assistance class please add the reference to the specific class from the timetable e.g. Assistance class 48 the name and reference would be F BLOGGS Assistance Class 48

Our bank account details are – Computerpals with NPBS BSB 650 000 Account 962205402

Term 3 Zoom fees ($10 for the whole of Term 3) will also be due (quote your name and Zoom T3 #2).

As a plug for Club Lambton, it is also their new financial year – memberships are due, renew or join ($5 – pay at the bar). Make sure you register your email address for their communications and monthly benefits that will well and truly cover your cost of membership.

Term 3 will start on 21/7 at Club Charlestown with a free Morning Tea and a guest speaker – Gil Gordon – speaking on Estate management (including digital assets).

However, the cat is among the pigeons ….. we have been advised Ausgrid are planning an area power outage in Lambton on 21/7… which creates a problem for our Morning Tea Day.

We have had to arrange a venue shift at the last minute. Instead of Club Lambton we will meet at Club Charlestown on 21/7. Undercover Car park entry is off Ferris St Charlestown.

There is also parking across the road at Charlestown Square.

Monday 21 July, will also be an enrolment day – our Treasurer, Grahame King, will be in attendance to help you with enrolments and payments.

August will be a combination of classes, business, fun, and social friendship.

Friday, 1/8, will be our AGM. It will be held at Cardiff RSL Club, starting at 11:00 am with lunch [own cost – $19 per person for a bistro meal to be paid to ComputerPals by 18/7/25]. Your attendance response form and payment are needed by 18/7/25 to facilitate planning and table arrangements by Cardiff RSL Club]. This form has been sent to you directly by email.

On Friday 29/8, we will celebrate ComputerPals’ 25th Anniversary also at Cardiff RSL Club, starting at 11:00 am [lunch own cost – $30 per person for a sit down meal of 2 courses + b’day cake + tea/coffee to be paid to ComputerPals by 15/8/25].
