# Members and lectures for your local history society — all of a piece Who it's for # Membership system for local history societies Lectures, excursions and town walks: sign-ups handled, contributions collected and the yearbook mailing list always current. For local history societies and heritage circles, MijnEvent handles sign-ups for lectures, excursions and town walks — free for members, paid for guests, in the same system — at a flat rate of €0.50 per paid sign-up (or €0.25 on the Organiser plan at €14.95 per activity), without a subscription. Free member activities cost nothing, so a lecture season full of member evenings runs entirely fee-free. You track members and contributions with automatic reminders, which keeps the yearbook mailing list current — no more yearbooks returned over outdated addresses. Friends and donors get their own page, and with the newsletter module you reach members and interested locals without separate mailing lists. After every lecture an automatic feedback question goes out, so you know which subjects resonate. Revenue runs through the society’s own Mollie account and lands directly in the bank account. Sound familiar? ## This is what it solves ## Sign-ups by email and telephone Members and guests sign up online — with an automatic distinction between free member spots and paid guest spots. ## The yearbook mailing list goes stale The membership records are the mailing list: address changes and cancellations process themselves into the yearbook mailing. ## Collecting contributions costs the board whole evenings Contributions run through iDEAL | Wero with automatic reminders — the board only checks the overview. What you get ## Everything you need - Sign-ups: free for members, paid for guests - Membership records doubling as a current yearbook mailing list - Newsletter to members and interested locals - Automatic feedback question after every lecture Free means free ## Free tickets are genuinely free No catch: on free tickets — for members, volunteers, children or guests — MijnEvent never charges a fee.

There are no fixed costs and no subscription: you pay €0.50 per paid sign-up (incl. VAT), or €0.25 on the Organiser plan at €14.95 once per activity. Free member activities cost nothing — a season of member lectures runs entirely fee-free. ## Can members sign up free while guests pay? Yes, per lecture or excursion you create a free member spot and a paid guest spot, each with its own capacity. Free spots are always fee-free. ## How do we keep the yearbook mailing list current? The memberships module doubles as the mailing list: new members, address changes and cancellations are immediately correct, and exports for the printer or mailing are always available.

Yes, per walk you set a maximum — say fifteen participants per guide — and a waiting list catches the rest. Participants pay at sign-up, so nobody stays away without cancelling. # Also for other organizers [Clubs & associations](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/vereniging) [Festivals](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/festival) [Schools](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/school) [Parades & regional events](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/corso) [Business events](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/zakelijke-events) [Rotary Clubs](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/rotary) [Lions Clubs](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/lions) [Kiwanis](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/kiwanis) [Round Table & Ladies' Circle](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/round-table) [Soroptimist & Inner Wheel](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/soroptimist) [Sports clubs](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/sportvereniging) [Running events](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/hardloopevenement) [Golf clubs](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/golfclub) [Trade associations](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/branchevereniging) [Business networks](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/ondernemersnetwerk) [Music societies](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/muziekvereniging) [Theatre companies](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/theatergezelschap) [Student associations](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/studentenvereniging) [Alumni & former-member associations](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/alumni) [Charities & foundations](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/goed-doel) [Churches & parishes](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/kerk) [Food truck festivals](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/foodtruckfestival) [Business clubs](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/businessclub) [Merchant associations](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/handelsvereniging) [Choirs](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/koor) [Open air theatres](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/openluchttheater) [Carnival associations](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/carnavalsvereniging) [Gymnastics clubs](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/turnvereniging) [Marksmen guilds](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/schutterij) [First aid associations](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/ehbo-vereniging) [Orange associations](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/oranjevereniging) [Dance schools](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/dansschool) [Evening four day marches](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/avondvierdaagse) [Village culture houses](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/dorpshuis) [Equestrian events & riding clubs](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/rijvereniging) [Ice skating clubs](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/ijsvereniging) [Swimming clubs](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/zwemvereniging) [Kids holiday weeks](https://mijnevent.nl/en/for/kindervakantieweek) [Organizers](https://mijnevent.nl/en/organizers) # Start today?
