Who joins and why? |
|
The members of Round Table come
from all walks of life and join for a variety of reasons -
perhaps as a gateway to relaxation and to enjoyment, or as a way
of participating in the local community. It is, of course, an
ideal way for those who have moved into a new area to find new
friends of a similar age.
Membership of Round Table helps to create confidence and
character. The individual learns quickly to mix and 'have-a-go'
at helping to organise and run meetings and events. The
organisation is run by and for Tabler's as a hobby.

|
How do I become a member? |
|
After attending as a guest for a
time, potential members are invited to join. There are no
barriers regarding one's political, religious, occupational or
marital status and the only qualification is to be male, over 18
and under 45. |
|
What about the costs and commitment
involved? |
|
There is an
annual subscription fee but this varies between the clubs and is
dependent on their location and activities. All members are
required to attend at least 60% of meetings (these are twice a
month and will often include a meal and drinks) and to support
and participate in as many of the other activities as possible.
As with any hobby the more you put in, the more you get out.
This is the challenge of Round Table.
|
|
What if I move to another part of the
country? |
|
This is where being a member of
Round Table really pays off. If you move elsewhere there will be
a Round Table Club close by. Once a member of Round Table always
a member. If you find yourself in an unfamiliar village, town,
city or country then there will be a group of friends waiting to
welcome you.. all you have to do is phone them and say that
you've moved in. You then simply transfer from your old
Table/Circle to the new one. |
