For active members you get all of above and many others like everyday free tranning session. Light breakfast at every marathon/running session, you will be sponsered for your running attire.....and on top of that u will be awarded for your achivements at annual dinner.....hmmmmmm and many other things.

1. I didnt join any shows, therefore i didnt benefit from the membership.
2. I didnt attend any meetings, or rather I didnt even know if there was a meeting to attend. I only got 1 letter towards the end of the term bout the AGM. I was wondering if that was the only time they had meetings.
3. Most of the time, I only got info from this forum which really is not the clubs forum. Or by word of mouth only.

Maybe you guys can do something for the non showing members.
I am a lifetime member of MKA and at least I receive a magazine each month and receive all the entry forms and all the latest shows. Even if I never show my dogs.

Just my 2 cents worth.

So if can do work on the benefits....the current ones are really crap.

Hi Doreen & Suzy,

I do understand you frustration as well as dissaticfaction Perhaps I think that this is not a very approate thread to talk about this.. But since is here I would like to add on to somethings.

Well personally myself are not happy with how the way FSM is run for the past 2 years, and is only about SHOW but nothing else, no news letter no circulation no update and information to the members and etc etc which i won't wanna say anymore. So therefore we need ppl like you and me and many other to voice out for this and as well as involve and help in the FSM and together to build a better club more other activities. Beside we have a new lineup for less then a month as well as lots of old issue to be solve as well as things need to plan. But the good things is that We have a bunch of helpful committee to help to reorganize the membership database as well as member info. So I would hope member come and update us your latest info so we could deliver to you the latest update and activity of FSM.

Well if everyone just wanna sit back and relax FSM will never be better never be a active club member will not get more benefits. Perhaps you could give a helping hand to help us up with this event as well as the future one I am sure we would be glad.

Well therefore we took a very initiative that to organize this very 1st BBQ pot luck as our 1st even. Coz the Important things is to strengthen relationship and as well as to recruit more new hand and new members in-order to run a bigger and better even in future. I hope a warmest support from everyone here in the forums.
