At the September 26, 2024 board meeting, the Board of Directors voted to change the Smashers Pickleball Club fiscal year to align with the calendar year. This change will allow Smashers to align revenue collected in January and February for membership renewals with the year in which that money will be spent.
For 2024, the current fiscal year will end December 31, 2024. The new fiscal year will begin January 1, 2025 and run through December 31, 2025. As a result, the budget for the 2025 fiscal year is being developed and a special meeting will be held in November to approve the budget for 2025.
There will be no change to the Smashers Membership Year, which will still run from March 1, 2024 through February 28, 2025 with the next Membership Year beginning March 1, 2025 through February 28, 2026. Membership renewal will open on January 1, 2025 for the next Membership Year.
This change will be explained in the October GMM on October 22 where the Treasurer will answer any questions the members may have.
