Premium Membership Conditions:
The boatshed has been built to provide active Wagga Wagga Sailing Club (WWSC) members with the benefit of being able to store their boat adjacent to Lake Albert. The boatshed is also provided to encourage newcomers to the sport of sailing.
Priority for space will be granted to active members of the WWSC who race regularly. Space may also be allocated at the discretion of the Boatshed Officer. Where the Boatshed Officer considers that a boat is not being
used sufficiently to justify its storage, they may request that the boat be removed. Boats may only be stored in the boat shed whilst owners are current financial members.
Boats and other equipment will only be stored in the boatshed on the express condition that owners indemnify the WWSC from any loss or damage whatsoever caused to boats, trailers and gear whilst in the boatshed or in the process of being placed in or removed from the boatshed. To this end all boat owners within boatshed will maintain necessary insurance on their boats and gear and will specifically advise their insurers that their boats are stored at the WWSC boatshed.
Boatshed security is important. It will remain open during club activities e.g., racing or learn to sail classes but at other times it should remain locked. If you decide to go for a sail during the week lock the boatshed up whilst you are on the water.
Please respect the property of others in the boatshed and do not tamper with or borrow gear from other boats.
Keep the boatshed and its surrounds clean and tidy and report any problems with the boatshed to the Boatshed Officer.
Boat Bays/Spaces in the boatshed and keys are not transferable. You will be provided with a key to the gate and one of the boatshed doors. If you lose the key you must pay for replacements. Also, please advise the Boatshed Officer if you will be removing your boat from the boatshed for an extended period of time.
Intellectual Property:
You agree to transfer all intellectual property rights and interests (including copyright) in any ideas or materials you create relating to your membership or provision of voluntary services at or to Wagga Wagga Sailing Club Inc. You further waive any moral rights you may have in any such creations. You consent to the use by Wagga Wagga Sailing Club Inc of such creations in a manner reasonably contemplated by the member/voluntary services provided. As a member/volunteer you also agree not to bring any claim for infringement of your moral rights in respect of that use.
Volunteers:
