Was thinking what I would like to see in my 2014 membership pack.

A better sticker. I.e. one that doesn't wear out after 2-3 months if car is out in the elements most the day/night

Or if they do keep the same standard sticker, send out a new one to all members half way through the year. It's good advertising for the club to.

Have scarves as part of the membership pack, and have printed on it the number of years you have been a member (Possibly only start it when members hit 5+ years)

Any other ideas/suggestions people have ?

I was a little miffed at the lack of pin-on-thing and scarf this year.....
I buy 4 memberships each year and go to about 3 games but I like to display the latest merch. on the bar at Casa-del Stu.
Bring em back!

But seriously, my wife loves the years member scarf she gets from the Hawks.

When are membership renewals for 2014. I'm happy with my current reserved seat and want to keep that for next season.

The bulldogs website is pretty handy for that sort of information.

Indeed. I am pleased with the effort they have put into the website and information updates/available compared to when I first joined up. I remember a few years back I kept on asking about being able to have reserved seats for away games.

I believe looking at the membership website that our 2014 campaign will be Gather the Pack.

Saw that on website last week. Spoke to membership today. They are putting years of membership on your membership card.

A member's keyring ... with the years of consecutive membership on it as the jumper number.

I'm coming up on 18 this year ... love to display Simple Simon's number on my Bulldog Membership keyring.

This will be my 2nd year in 2014 as a Doggies member. Do they do that after a certain amount if years though say after 5 years.

My invoice has charged me full price for my membership. I'm a student with a concession so how do I get the discount. Do I need to wait for the renewal form in the mail.

It's always best to contact the club.

I did ten years as a member when living in Melbourne ... came to Perth to go to uni (missed those three years) and have stayed in Perth since. The last 18 years of membership I have been living in Perth the whole time.

By my calculations i would be on 31 as well if i had been able to maintain my membership whilst at uni.

On level 1 Danstar. Coming into my 2nd year as a member I'm very happy with my Level 1 seat. Your really close to the action.

I think I'm around 6 years I was on and off over the years, having family and divorcing does hit the hip pocket hard but TCD probably got me back and it's not stopping again, I'm really enjoying these years as my kids have gone and I have more time on my own to follow my loves.

My family has 8 years of membership. The thing that I love the most is that my son is 11 and my daughter is 8 so when they get to my age they will have 40 plus years of membership. The bad thing is I can see myself having to pony up the money way into their twenties to keep things on track.

We pay $1,390 per annum for four reserved home game seats on level 2. Aisle 33 .

It is one of the few things that we do together as a family and will always be something we can do together which, as they get older, will be even more important IMHO.

Great work. Were they a member previously and upgraded?

I'm buying my girlfriend one as a surprise, even though she hates footy.

Good on you azabob. I'm single right now but when I have a girlfriend and she doesn't yet have a team ill be encouraging her to support the Dogs too and to get a membership.

Nah, they were a member quite a few years ago but didn't have time for it/somebody to go with each week.

Nice work, she'll learn to love it for the good of the relationship :D

I was lucky and the first game I took my girlfriend along to was Brad Johnsons 300th.

Amazing game, she now is obsessed with the Dogs.

The first game you take them too is definitely the most important!

What would be a good membership figure for us by Christmas you reckon. I hoping we get more than we did this season.

I can see a portion of members from the 08-10 period jumping back on board after the second half of last season.

Agree Cricho54. There is definitely lots more optimistic now after that great second half of the season.
