Each one has made a significant contribution to the success of our Club. An introduction is included below.

According to our Club Rules, to be eligible for nomination for election of life membership, a member must in the opinion of the Board, have rendered exceptional services to the Kiama Alpine Club for at least 10 years.

Nominations are considered by the Board with the following guidelines:

Must be no more than 15 living life members
Must be a financial member
Must have actively contributed to the participation of alpine activities
Must have rendered exceptional services to the Club which can be clearly documented and substantiated; and
Must have contributed at least 10 years’ service to the Club – resulting in the Club being substantially, demonstrably and positively changed by that contribution.
