THE HENLEY WHALERS - You think you want to join us? To Homepage

Have you read What do we do? Who are we?

Most people come for a trial run to see if they mean it!
Come with an existing member if you know one.
Otherwise contact the one who runs this site
Visitors make a nominal contribution.

If you are still interested:-
We are a non-profit "organisation" using a privately owned boat.
We pay the owner a variable annual sum to offset his costs re maintenance, insurance, etc, etc, etc
You can join as an individual or family.
You will also need Associate membership of Upper Thames Rowing Club (where Molly is moored)
.

Paid up members get:-
» the right to a place on-board each Wednesday night, subject to space. (You reserve your space with the Whaler Crew Weekly Sign-Up )
» the right to sign up for other events on the Whaler Crew Weekly Sign-up . (Local events are mostly free, others are chargeable to cover towage, entry fees, etc.)
» a user-name and password for the Whaler Crew Weekly Sign-up
» the right to bring a guest visitor - see below.
» Your email address will be added to "Whalernet", which circulates Henley Whalers news by email to all paid-up members.

Bringing a Guest:-
Bringing a friend or two is easy. It is not normally necessary to ask anyone, except for special events, concert nights, etc. You sign you self onto the Crew Sign-On. Alongside your name add something like “+Friend”, or “+1”. On the next line down, or lower if there is already a name below your own, enter the name of your friend followed by “(with yourname)”. You pay the owner £5 per visitor per visit in cash or cheque on the night, or later, or by electronic payment. There is not really any specified number of visitors per member per night. If you want several it might be diplomatic to clear it with the owner &/or add them late on the day if there is still space. There is also no specified limit to the number of visits a non-member can make, though if they come often, it would be cheaper to join!
