A common misconception is that you have to be a member to do
something with us. This is simply not true as
there are many different ways that you can help SMiSA achieve its aims and
objectives or better function as a supporters trust without ever paying a
monthly contribution.
SMiSA has the power to co-opt 2 members onto its board from
outwith its membership in order to do specific tasks. These could be anything from helping to run
and improve this very website, to working to help improve St. Mirren’s standing
within the local community.
Furthermore, those individuals who presently own shares in
the club itself can, if they wish, sign over any voting rights they have to the
trust in order for it to carry greater influence in direct club affairs.
Another way you can help is volunteering some
time/assistance at one of our functions.
At the recent Hugh Murray Testimonial Quiz Night & for the 'Design a Poster' Exhibition there were numerous people not
associated with SMiSA who pitched in to help make the events a success and they
would not have been without their help and assistance.
If you feel you have something you can add to the
association then please get in touch.
We are also willing to accept donations, which can be sent to us via cheque/postal order at this address:
SMiSA
PO Box
5074
Barrhead
Glasgow
G78 1WG
However we must stress, please DO
NOT send us cash through the post. You
can also collar one of the board members at Love St most home games
and they will be happy to take a donation and put it towards our fund, for any
purpose you care to specify.
SMiSA are also open to people who wish to become a patron of the association. To discuss this please email our chairman, Alistair Colquhoun.
But it goes without saying SMiSA would not be anywhere
without its members and we are always looking to attract more. Our minimum contribution currently stands at
£10 per month, or about the same cost as a pint a week. You can of course, contribute more if you wish
and some of our current members do indeed do that. To download an application form to join us,
please click here.
Finally, we are always open to constructive suggestions,
whether they come from our membership or outside of it. If you have an idea that you would like to
take to us which you think would make SMiSA better and/or help make a reality
for the benefit of the club and its supporters, then please do let us know. We are always happy to invite visitors to the
association’s board or general meetings to discuss any such ideas further and
in more detail, regardless of their scope.
