I accept though that the fees should be justifiable vis-a-vis the Club's program / projections and if necessary, adjustments made accordingly. That's the more pertinent issue which if articulated properly should mean that accounting matters be made more transparent, this I certainly agree with. I was part of a team which helped to promote corporate governance and financial disclosure leading to some high profile casses of corporate misfeasance being made public last year.  In the end, it's up to everyone whether they want to be a full member and pay the fees, no one's forcing you, the Club owes you nothing! However, if you choose not be a full member, you need to respectfully know your place and be grateful for the facility availed to you FOC. Yes, this is not a golf club becos the Club is not conducting a business and even if you're a paid member, you're not a customer, you're part of a collective of enthusiasts.</blockquote>
