NAPFA needs every prospector and fossicker to make the effort to join up.
In order to get any sort of consideration from the Government Departments that have control over our hobby requires numbers.
Get behind NAPFA and give support to those that are trying get better results for ALL gold loving prospectors.
Without your support, the NSW Government WILL have you banned.

Thanks for the heads up Jeffu  that makes me MAD!!
I have seen NAPFA's site and wasn't sure if it was worth joining or not, only because I wasn't sure what they did with the "joining fee".
But if you are saying that the Government will have to listen if we get numbers up, then I will join!!!!!
Just wondering.... what number is the magic number until they do listen? and are we far from achieving this goal?
EVERYBODY PLEASE SUPPORT NAPFA AND STAND UP FOR OUR RIGHT TO PROSPECT!!!!

Thanks Jeff & Madhatter
What all fossickers in NSW need to understand is that united we have a chance, but divided, or apathetic, we have less chance of pushing our case.
Madhatter -- there is no magic number. The more the better. The "joining fee" is used to administer the organisation not for the committee to live the high-life. think postage, insurance, transport, communications. Salary -- and
perks NIL. If you want a job where you work hard for no pay, then this is it!
What NAPFA needs is for all fossickers who care about the future in NSW to join the only organised voice that is speaking on their behalf. Fence sitting does not help.
Government is already listening, and we are talking with a range of NSW government stakeholders about what we say are unfair and unnecessary regulations. But it is not an easy road and there are no easy wins.
And make no mistake -- NSW Government has regulations now that negatively impact us. The more members we have the better; but the real decisions will also turn on the quality of our arguments and counter
arguments. Membership is an important part of it though, and certainly gives us more
credibility. So if you or other posters have not joined then now is the time to stand-up. Thanks to those who are members.
Regards
Stephen NAPFA President.
