These House Rules are intended as a guide to Members and prospective members, and are intended to be read in conjunction with the Constitution.
Generally: Our intention as a Club is to provide an opportunity for the enjoyment of Country Music, for performers and audience alike. We will endeavour to give to Members an opportunity to play, sing, or otherwise participate in the presentation of the music, and we will encourage each participant to develop their full potential in this expression.
As an Incorporated Society, there are rules and regulations that govern us, and we endeavour to abide by these at all times. The Committee, elected each year, is the governing body of the Club, and retains the authority to organise Club nights and rehearsals as they think fit.
Please refer to House Rules for Performers for advice on participation in Club performances.
