Those who will be involved in working bees and participate in society activities. They receive the Society’s bi-annual Newsletter, "The Chronicle" which contains information about the Society’s progress, meetings and other activities as well as articles about the districts past and are covered by our Insurance policy.

::: SUBSCRIBERS & OVERSEAS SUBSCRIBERS:Those who have ancestors or an interest in our area, they are unlikely to visit but wish to be kept informed through our bi-annual newsletter, and have no need for Insurance cover.
