Joining and renewing your Orienteering club membership 2017
When you
join an orienteering club, you join Orienteering Victoria (OV) at
the same time. Membership is for a calendar year from January 1st;
new members who join from October 1st will have their membership
rolled over to the following year.
The Australian Orienteer quarterly magazine comes with your
subscription. You can choose the hard copy or access to the online version.
Associated Schools and Organisations receive the magazine as part of their
membership. Besides the $5 taken out at the OV stage of the online application
the rest of the OV membership fee comes out of the club membership fee.
