Junior Section

Since I became a member, I have nothing but admiration for this club. Now, I hear there is to be a Junior Section, which needs funding.

May I suggest a weekly Raffle, with kind donations from members of a prize.
I would gladly start this off next time I can get to the club.

I wil get the raffle tickets.

Anyone else have any good ideas? Or donations?

I am sure with all the members, we have our 'contacts'

Lets get rocking and get the funds rolling in

Pat M

What a nice chap. Perhaps Karl's hat could be the prize?
Mike Mason

or those shorts of his...
mikemoreton

Anything will do, keep it up guys!!

Donations gratefully received

Raffle every Tuseday?
Mike Mason

I am ok with the raffle - biscuits and birthday cake should be on the prizes list......

From a half asleep point of view, I thought MM2 was suggesting raffling off our Junior section. Then we'll eventually end up with no juniors left and hence no need to raise money......

I'm sure the club members could offer many services. Plumbing, gardening, driving lessons, chimney sweeping,......

half asleep - or half human / half muppet ?

On the full Muppet front

Think we should have a "Junior Supporter" trophy as a single raffle prize.

It should be quite substantial - As befitting such an important cause.

We could have a draw each time we reach 100 tickets sold.

We winner being the proud custodian of the JST until the next draw.

If we don't reach 100 tickets in any particular night, we would have the added excitement of a "Roll Over " situation !

All we need to do, is get the trophy, and watch the money roll in

glad to see we are all taking the Junior Section seriously then...

c.c.m.a. comes to mine

Looks like we could be on to something here?

Not vinegar stuff either. Pukka job my son

Grown men can learn from very little children for the hearts of little children are pure. Therefore, the Great Spirit may show to them many things which older people miss.

There's no point in being grown up if you cant be childish sometimes.

Ok, Now you have really lost me.

Do i bring lemonade as the prize and offer tickets at 5p each?

By the way Jez, on our run, i mentioned buying a ticket and you went very quiet.

(Oh damn, now the kettlebells will appear)
Graham

I'll be up for some tickets!! If you're serious maybe we should make it monthly rather than weekly.
Lee O

May I suggest A Prize....

A UNUSED BENFLEET 15 Number...LOL
mikemoreton

Monthly it is!!

Excellent plan

1st Tuesday of the month?


except for the inaugral one next week?

I am so excited
mikemoreton

Graham, you can have the first ticket. Number 1, you deserve it.

(might fool him into buying lots)

I have got the ticket book now and will bring tonight.
Anyone have a prize?

Dont worry about bringing too many, we can store them for next months raffle
