Waiting List Applications

The Club is strictly limited to 100 Full Members. There is a waiting list for full membership.

• Any adult person interested in Full Membership completes a Waiting List Application Form which can be downloaded by clicking here.
  • The Waiting List Application form requires the support of two existing full members.
  • The form also requires the proposed recipient to certify that he/she has stayed at Illabunda during Winter
• The completed form is sent to the Secretary, Port Kembla Ski Club Ltd, PO Box 1985, South Coast Mail Centre, NSW, 2521.
• The Club Committee considers the application, and decides to approve or reject it at a monthly meeting.
  • Note: The Waiting List is normally open, although the Club retains the right to close it at any time. This can occur when the Waiting List is too long.
• When the application is approved by the Committee, the Debenture Registrar adds the applicant to the Full Membership Waiting List, in one of the following priority classifications:-
  1. Spouses or adult children of current full member, "family" applications.
  2. All other applications, referred to as "normal" applications.
• The Committee determines the priority rules for the Waiting List. By a decision in 2017, debentures for sale are offered to each classification alternately.
