Fees & Subscriptions 2008/2009
• Annual Subscription Fee (mid Sept to mid May)
FEES /
SUBSCRIPTIONS
There are three different fees which SYG require:
-
Uniform Contribution Fee
(new members
only)
This is a
one-off fee for any new members to SYG to help cover the cost of
providing the SYG uniform. (Please see notes on Uniform in this letter). This fee is only paid once,
when you first join, and is due by 22nd September 2008.
The uniform contribution fee is £25
-
Annual Subscription Fee
(mid Sept to
mid May)
The subs cover the costs involved in running SYG on Monday evenings, e.g.
insurance, hire of facilities,
affiliation fees, etc. As for last year, to make budgeting easier for both you
and us, we have incorporated the costs of the Monday evening outings into the subs, which we used to charge
for separately. This
means that the subs now cover the cost of ALL Monday evenings at SYG from
mid Sept through to the
start of the Summer Programme in May.
The subs for
this year (08/09) are due by 22nd September 2008.
The Juniors subscription for 2008 / 2009 is £55
The Seniors / Amicus subscription for 2008 / 2009 is £70
In order to assist families with more than one child in SYG, we have a “sliding scale” for subs as shown in
the matrix below, e.g. if you have 1 Junior and 1 Senior/Amicus in SYG, then the total
subs payable will be £113.

Please Note: The subs only just
cover the costs of running the group. The SYG leaders undertake a significant amount of fundraising in order to provide the full
range of opportunities available at SYG.
-
Summer Programme Fee
(mid May to mid
July)
The summer term is when we change gear completely and undertake a number of
different “fun” activities,
e.g. bowling, wide games, a Barbeque, punting, etc, which we need to charge for
separately, the cost being
determined by the activities we undertake (usually around £25 for the whole
summer term). You will be
advised of this fee nearer that time.
Important Changes to Funding
SYG have always
sought funds on the behalf of families that may have difficulty meeting any of
the SYG costs
(Fees/subscriptions and camp). We have always been supported by the
Huntingdon's Charity. From the
1st September 2008 the Huntingdon's Charity have changed the way in which they
operate. They now require
all applications for funding to come direct from the families. This will
now mean that some families may have
all the costs of SYG paid for. If you have any concerns, or would like to
know more about these changes,
please feel free to contact us.
Please
don’t let money be a barrier!
If you need help in meeting any of our fees,
please do let us know.
