Good afternoon to everyone in the NOBS World; and a happy New Year. 

 

Lots to talk about but first a reminder we are back on for Tuesday and Thursday nights in the Dome.  As usual for the hardier types, it’s outside on Sunday at 1pm in Burlington. 

 

Here’s a little trivia for you.  It was on this day in 1883 that the Ontario Rugby Union was founded.    It was also on this day; January 6, 1955 in Consett Co. Durham England that Rowan Atkinson was born.

 

Not sure how that ties in with anything; but happy 60th Rowan.  Maybe we could send him some red shorts?

 

Rolf Thomas has asked me to remind everyone that our awards night is quickly approaching on Friday, January 16th.  Cost for a night of rugby humour, awards presentations, sumptuous Indian dinner and a rugby sing song is only $30.  Rolf or a member of the NOBS executive will have tickets, but we need to know soon as  we have rentals to arrange.  Let Rolf know at rolfthomas@live.com

 

The AGM is just around the corner on January 25th at 3pm after the touch run around in Burlington.  Very important meeting as there are many positions to fill.  Aboard will be going up shortly in the Centaurs clubhouse for nominations.  Ask not what your club can do for you; ask what you can do for your club.

 

With the new year also comes the annual visit to Ft. Lauderdale for Ruggerfest.  Tim Ellis is heading up the expedition as we will be going back to defend our crown we won last year.  Everything you need to know is below.  Don’t delay; let Tim know of your intentions.

 

Come on out and work off the holidays.  See you on the pitch, Da Thug

 

 

 

Craig, can you please forward this message to the crowd.

With Christmas and New Year now a distant memory it is time to start looking forward to our annual journey south to do battle on the pitch, get a little much needed sun, and maybe a beer or two. Ruggerfest is scheduled Feb 21st @ 22nd so plan on flying down on the 19th and returning on the 23rd. Flights are looking more reasonable than they have been in the last two years so get booked. The venue has changed this year to Mills Pond Park, 2201 NW 9th Avenue which is a lot closer to where we have stayed in the past. Due to the change in venue and an extensive poll of preferences I am looking at staying in either the Ocean Sky or the Ocean Manor,  the Ocean Manor is where we stayed in the past and the Ocean Sky is right next door. I am waiting on a final quote and then will send out booking info, plan on about $95 per night per person based on double occupancy. I am looking to build a Ruggerfest specific email list so as people book flights I can let everyone now arrival times to facilitate carpooling etc. If you are planning on going please send me an email to let me now at timothy.ellis@sympatico.ca.

Thanks
Tim
