New Member Introduction Information

Mackay Land Rover Club Inc.

 

We are a group of responsible families and individuals with the common interest of using our Four-Wheel Drive vehicles to get out into the great outdoors, often to places not available to the general public. All makes of four-wheel drives are welcome in our club, which was formed in 1976 when there was less vehicle choice, hence the name.

 

We hold club meetings at 7:00pm on the third Thursday of each month at Mackay Showgrounds Pavilion 1 at 24 Milton Street, Mackay and run trips/events and or social activities of one, two or more days, usually twice a month. We also provide a monthly newsletter/magazine to keep you informed.

 

You are more than welcome to attend club meetings as a guest, and we hope you will consider joining our club.

The joining process to become a member is as follows, during which time you will be considered as a probationary member. You will be able to participate in club events/activities immediately and drive on trips once you complete Driver Awareness Program.

• Register Online by scrolling down.
• Then, you can download the club manual from our Library. This is intended to provide you with necessary information to maintain club standards.
• Before you can drive on a trip, you will be required to undertake the Driver Awareness Program (DAP) run by this club; this is intended to ensure that you have the necessary skills to successfully negotiate typical four-wheel drive terrain.  Our Awareness Driver Training Officer will contact you to arrange this.
• Attend at least two events/activities, one of which should be a driving event.

On successful completion of the probationary period, your acceptance as a member will be subject to a vote of members at a club meeting (this is normally a formality).

 

Once voted in as a member, you will be required to pay an annual membership fee or part thereof depending upon the time of year. The annual fees are currently set at $85 for a family or an individual.
