Dear Members,
At last night’s Club AGM I was elected as CVFR Chair for the coming year - a
position I am honoured to take up. I hope to do at least half as good a job as
outgoing Chair, Jocasta Fletcher, who has been brilliant over the past 3 years.
A big thank you to Jocasta for her hard work and great leadership.
And many thanks to the committee members past and present who do a fantastic
job of keeping the club running (!) and to all the other club volunteers who
help with an extraordinary range of roles that are vital for the safe and
healthy organisation of our races, social events and the club’s junior section.
Plus, a call out for MORE help!
We still have a couple of roles to fill and I would like to encourage all
members - whether you are brand new to the club or have been around for an age
- to think about putting yourself forward. These are:
- Two Co-optee positions on the Committee one of which will lead on developing
a positive environmental policy and actions to ensure that we keep the club’s
impact on the planet as light as possible. Co-optees are invited to take up
their role at the next Committee Meeting on 10th January 2023.
- Press Officer. We have four at present who produce the weekly press/news
report on a four weekly rota. Tim will be giving up this role in the new year
(he will continue as the club’s Access Officer) so we have an upcoming vacancy
for anyone who fancies their hand as a budding sports journalist (It really is
quite good fun and you get to know a lot more about your club as you go along).
If anyone is interested or might be persuadable, just drop me a line and we can
have a chat.
There are plenty of club activities coming up over the next few weeks which you
will hear about through our regular bulletins. Here are some important dates
for your diaries:
- Junior Presentation Do. Saturday 3rd December
- Mytholmroyd Fell Race. Saturday 4th December
- Family Score Event. Sunday 11th December
- Christmas Pack Run. Tuesday 20th December
- Winter Score. Sunday 8th January 2023
- Winter Handicap. Saturday 21st January 2023
- Annual Club Presentation Do. 21st January 2023
With all best wishes
Marc
