Secrecy surrounds the Cromwell Town and Country Club's extraordinary meeting tomorrow, when members will vote on a motion of no confidence in the committee.
All those contacted by the Otago Daily Times declined to comment.
Almost 1000 people belong to the club, which was incorporated in 1977.
Club manager Jock McGregor said he was legally bound by a confidentiality agreement.
Former club president Duncan McMillan said he was not able to comment as it was a sensitive time.
Club president Allan Rickard, of Cromwell, did not return calls.
In July last year, club committee members published a letter in the Cromwell Bulletin which stated that a survey of members had indicated there was a need to improve the club's systems and operations, including committee responsibilities and accountability.
"The restructuring of the management role at the club and the introduction of subcommittees to streamline committee operations is the first step.
Input from members, transparency, and ensuring members feel they own their club are key to the committee's future direction", the letter said.
The club's latest annual financial statement - for the year ending June 2008 - indicated a surplus for the year of $21,784, bringing the club's balance to $516,304.
At the time, its total assets were valued at $612,521, down $40,000 from the previous year.
Motions of no confidence in committee must be signed by at least 50 financial members, after which an extraordinary meeting and a vote must be held.
The club's annual meeting is scheduled to start at 11am after the 10am extraordinary meeting.
