NOBS News: Cru Fundraiser

All:  Please see the attached information in a fundraiser being held by the Cru.  See the attached note.

 

I wonder if I can ask you to circulate information regarding forthcoming fundraiser at Cru rugby club to help offset costs of private surgery in the UK for my son Andrew who recently had a double sports hernia surgery that's enabling him to continue playing and importantly be available for the upcoming season both for his club and for Ontario Blues. The surgery would've taken over a year to be completed in Canada I will send you the poster for the evening which is a comedy night and should be a lot of fun for everyone!

Thanks for your help with this

NOBS News: AGM Outcome

Three items – AGM, Touch Update, Ft. Lauderdale

AGM

This past Sunday was the event the year…AGM!  There was reports from the current Executive followed by discussion.  I won’t get into the details, but some of the highlights include:

• Financial sound (Rolf’s magic!)
• Continue to improve communication
• Look at different types of social events
• Consider some touch tournament days on Sundays
• Recruitment of contact players, and a better way to communicate availability
• Etc…

All good ideas and a good number of folks willing to help out – All very good to hear, the challenge is to get some of these things done.

The election part was damn efficient…thanks to David’s one vote for all positions.  Now that is election reform!

NOBS News: Touch and AGM

Just a reminder for those doing Wednesday night touch about the $80 fee for 8-weeks.  A minimum of $40 would be accepted to keep you in good standing.  All $$ goes to Rolf.

As well, On Sunday Feb 12 is the annual AGM happening after touch.  Start time is 3:00, and the goal is to be complete by 4:00.  There will be reports from the Executive, some discussion and then elections. 

Thanks 

NOBS News: Touch and AGM

Touch will continue at the Burloak Sports Centre (8:30 to 9:30).  We have secured 8 more weeks. At this time the fee will be $80.00 for the full session.  We ask that you pay a minimum of $40.00 to start, but would prefer the full amount up front.  Any extra will be invested in additional nights if we can not get outdoors in April.  All money is to go to Rolf.

The Executive met last Sunday and the AGM has been set for Sunday February 12 after touch (2:30).  We will be sending around an agenda in advance.    There will be a sign up sheet at the club for those interested to be on the executive.  We encourage participation. We also welcome feedback (good, bad, and ugly) on how things could work better on and off the field. 

Thanks
