Existing Clubs Things to note: • Money from school will NOT roll-over, but anything you get from sponsorship, donations and income will roll-over • Bank account will reset every financial year • You are allowed to collect membership fees, BUT you will need to take a vote within your club as stated in the constitution, quorum must be met, and after the alteration you MUST inform SI and send in the altered document to SI. That is if you have not already stated as such in your constitution.
Weekly Bazaar • Description: It is a weekly event that will occur every Wednesday. It is to serve as a platform for clubs to fund raise together to create a larger impact instead of embarking on a solo event where you may face difficulty in impact and outreach. The start time will be any time after 0000 of the day, and will end at 1900 of the same day. Venue will be the East Terrace. If there are more than the capacity of the venue, a new venue will be opened up for usage (Concourse).
Weekly Bazaar Procedures: • Application forms are to be submitted to the box in the SAC • Forms will be collected at 2pm on Friday, late submissions will mean that your application will only be considered for the following week’s bazaar • You will be notified of your designated locations on Friday itself • On Thursday, you are to surrender all raised funds and the receipt book and the Income Declaration Form to the admin office Finance counter. If you close shop before 5pm on Wednesday, you can also submit the items on the same day. • Receipt books will be checked and return on the spot at the Finance counter at the Student Service Center.
