Tax Funded Titans

Hello all Yee Lads and Ladies,

Run-a-round

Our First Run Around for 2005 is still on - Sunday 27 February 2005 at 2:00pm on Nairnville Park - Top Field (near the Netball Courts).

A number of you have already let me know you will be there; I’ll bring some balls, bibs, magic water, oh and the first aid kit.

Gathering afterwards

There will be a gathering / barbeque afterwards. The wonderful Captain Saundini (Matthew Saunders) has kindly offered the use of his Cheateau for our convenience.

This will be from Sunday 27 February 2005 at 4:00pm.

171 Cockayne Rd Ngaio, Wellington

(Call Chris if you get lost 021 522 342.) Matt’s place is a five minute walk from Nairnville Park.

A barbeque is provided but you will need to bring your own refreshment and any meat you wish to cook.

Come along for a run (and/or the gathering) and if you have anyone who may be interested bring them too.

Transport

Let me know if you need transport to the run-a-round so I can put you on to someone who can help.

Last Years Strip

For those of you with strip from last season we or rather Patrick needs to know what you’ve got. So dig out your gear and confirm what gear you have from last season (shirt number, shorts, socks). A spreadsheet will be provided on Sunday or you can e-mail Patrick directly.

Data collection for Sunday

Okay so Gareth managed to “correct” my somewhat hacked and feeble attempt at a spreadsheet and some of you provided updated detail. Other than that the consensus was to proceed.

 

The intention is to catch as many people on Sunday as turn up and check their detail and then chase those that were not there via e-mail the next week.

 

This means that our Strip Manager, Captain and Treasurer are waiting on the data capture before they can proceed.

 

 

Web Site Presence

We now have a web page presence outside of the (Olympic Site) and David M has obligated to be our Web Master and to help me manage/police the Web reports to the Club (upon his return).

 

At this stage David M has suggested that we load up the “broadcast” e-mails and any pertinent notices so that people can be more informed. Any suggestions or comments welcome at this stage. http://www.blogigo.com/tfts

 

 

Gathering on Sunday

I have finally reached Capt. Saundini but he was busy and unable to talk. He did say he would call me back today.

 

 

Treasurer

Our wonderful Treasurer has begun chasing the outstanding amounts from the 2004 Season.

 

 

I think that’s all. Let me know if I’ve missed anything.

Greetings Lads (and ladies),

 The Brian’s Trust has had a meeting and I am currently doing some notes up for that and will circulate for your edification at some stage over the next few days.

 Just as a heads up, there will be a number of e-mails pouring out asking for response from several different people but relating to various necessary tasks/functions/roles over the next few days. Please do take the time to respond appropriately as it will save no end of heart ache and possibly cost in the long run.

 Right then the first of this weeks requests.

 Our First Run Around for 2005 - Sunday 27 February 2005 at 2:00pm on Nairnville Park - Top Field (near the Netball Courts)

 There will possibly be a gathering / barbeque afterwards but this is to be confirmed.

 Come along for a run and if you have anyone who may be interested bring them too.
