Surfguard will then produce a report advising which members have been emailed their pre-filled membership forms and provide you with pre-filled membership forms for those without email addresses in Surfguard.
Note: If electronically sending or printing forms for all your members, it is important to break the output up into a number of groups based on age/ name/ Membership category.
Because this report can be large, printing all members at once may fail. We suggest that you print one output for all members with last names starting from ‘a’ to ‘c’, then another output of members from ‘d’ to ‘f’, etc.
