Items discussed at the emergency general meeting 8.2.09

Firstly, a HUGE thank you to Tom for everything he has done for run club and we are pleased that he is staying on as a lifetime member and President of Virgin Active Road Runners. Without you and Helen, there would be a lot of people (myself included) who would never have run at all in their lives.
Thank you to all the members who turned up to the meeting.
1: Rick Pullan was voted in as the new chair. Rick is a very experienced runner and has some excellent ideas as to how to take the club forwards.

2: Dave McGuire was elected men's captain and Vikki King as ladies' captain.

3: Debra Brown will continue as secretary and Khara Mills as gym liaison. It was noted that a treasurer is needed and Barbara Conley was not able to be at the meeting, but following a conversation later has said that she will take on this role.

4: Anna McKeon and Jaz Bangerh will be the club's social secretaries.

5: Group leaders were also organised.
  • 1. Tom and Helen Williams
  • 2. Kay Fawcett
  • 3. Debra Brown
  • 4. Rick Pullan
  • 5. Dave McGuire

6: The committee will be made up of president, chair, secretary, treasurer, captains, gym liaision officer, social secretaries and group leaders.

7: The idea of a club championship was discussed (see separate post).

8: Rick will contact the manager of the gym to hopefully organise a noticeboard and Harp offered to create cards advertising run club which can be put on the CV machines in the gym.

9: Rick will look into organising coaching qualifications for the group leaders.

10: The idea of a junior section was put forward by Kay. This is something we could look towards in the future when we can find a safe and suitable training location.

11: The idea of getting more club kit was also discussed with the possibility of long sleeved shirts and jackets with our team logo on.

Have I missed anything?!
