As you all know, the Club has made great strides forward, both on and off the field, in recent years. However, we do not propose to sit back and rest on our laurels. In that respect, we are in the process of putting together another 5 year development plan, which will be published to members, once it has been finalised.
Of course, development such as that which has taken place at Douglas Valley does not just happen but requires considerable input from the members. In that respect, we have been very fortunate in the past few years to have been able to rely on the commitment, expertise and dedication of a number of people, for which we are grateful.
Further development, however, would be greatly assisted by some involvement from more members. This would ease the burden on those presently involved and would bring new ideas and fresh impetus to the table. Consequently, the purpose of this notice is to invite offers of help from others.
From the end of August, the positions of Treasurer and Chair of Fundraising, vacated by Derek Jones and Mark Ashley respectively after outstanding efforts, will become vacant. We are, therefore, looking to replace them. Consequently, we would invite anyone who is interested in either of these two posts, or in any separate aspects of the posts, to speak to one of our committee members, in order to explore things further. We say “separate aspects” because, whilst someone may not have the time to take on a full post, they may nevertheless be able to look after one aspect of it. For example, someone may well be happy to take responsibility for arranging match sponsors, whilst someone else might take responsibility for obtaining match ball or other sponsorship. In addition, our development plan will no doubt involve projects of other kinds, requiring varying degrees of commitment. Thus, would anyone who is interested in becoming involved in any way please get in touch with any member of the Executive Committee for a preliminary discussion.
