February 26th 2011 - Thanks to Andrea for the latest BA and County League results (view from link above). The following are snippets from the recent committee meeting, but as I was earning dosh that night I wasn' t there. So what's happening behind the usual scenes? New bosses are on order and that will cost us in the region of £1500, because you're all getting so good and wearing out the targets. Andrea clarified the position of Barebow and Longbow being included under the 'recurve' banner..... and you are, for the purpose of the British Archer league. Next external issues....
We're helping Newcastle Schools provide an 'Olympic' style event and will be hosting the archery at Kenton school. That is in June, and also we provided the support for a regional 'Talent' Identification event and were complimented on the facilities. That was about the middle of February. We've been approached by the council with reference to the lease for Longmeadows field. This may result in a change to the current lease and subseqent financial cost to the club. It would, however, tie the field to us a little better, but we can only wait and see.
All the finances for the rental of premises have been sorted out and we are up to date with payments. To close, I have posted all the dates that I have, plus a few I guessed, into the home page diary. Included in these are the dates for the final course for the winter. NO course will be held outdoors this summer.
Good shooting, or if not, good company.
