Rules and Procedures
- The membership will normally consist of 100 people, but is not restricted to residents living within the boundaries of the Awbridge & District Village Association. The first call on net proceeds from the lottery will be to support the publication of a village newsletter (The ‘Awbridge News’).
- The membership of the Club will be increased beyond 100 if there is a demand. If 110 or more members are registered at the time of each draw, the total sum allocated as prize money will be increased in proportion to the excess (in £1 steps).
- If fewer than 90 members are registered at the time of each draw, the total sum allocated as prize money will be reduced in proportion to the actual membership (in £1 steps)
- The membership fee for the whole year, June to May inclusive, is £20, payable annually in advance. (The membership fee will be reduced pro rata for new residents joining during the year).
- One draw will take place every two months and in public, by a person who is not a member of the Awbridge Lotto. Where possible, these draws will be held at an ADVA or other village event.
- Each bi-monthly draw will be for two prizes: 1st – £40 and 2nd– £20 in July, September, November, January, March, and May
- Twice a year, in November and in May, there will be an additional prize of £200.
- All members are eligible for each draw.
- Each prize winner will be announced immediately after each individual draw. If not present, the winning members will be contacted as soon as possible.
- Membership may be transferred by arrangement with the organiser.
- Lack of payment will invalidate membership.
- In the event of a dispute, the elected officers of the Awbridge & District Village Association will have the final arbitration.
These rules and procedures should be retained by the member, the downloaded and completed form to be sent to, and retained by the treasurer, together with the subscription.
