Chairman’s Digest, June 2011.

A meeting of the County committee took place on 6^th June. I shall attempt to give you a few notes on the salient points of interest prior to the publication of the full minutes.

County Match

We have our second County Match of the year on 26^th June. This time against Essex. It will be held at our home ground of Hazelwick School in Crawley. I wish good shooting to all those taking part.

County Championships

Two weeks later on 9/10^th July we have the County Championship Weekend. The not inconsiderable organisation for the county’s major event is now well in hand. Please get your entry application in as soon as possible if you haven’t done it already. All the details are on the SCAA website www.sussex-archery.org.uk Please note the change of venue from that shown in the Archery UK magazine. We shall be at Hazelwick School, Crawley. I know that this will be a great weekend. Good luck to all those involved.

Donation

I am very pleased to announce that the association has received a very generous donation of £2500 from Towncross Engineering of Bognor Regis. This has been used to assist in the purchase of two shipping containers for the storage of the county’s equipment. Thank you so much Towncross.

Home Grounds

We have entered into an agreement with Hazelwick School to site the containers on their grounds and to use the playing fields for our matches & tournaments. This is with the kind permission and cooperation of Crawley Archery Club.

County Website

A great deal of work has been put into updating the content of the county website. This includes the records, rankings, contacts & other background items. The homepage has an extended list of items, so don’t forget to scroll down to check out all the latest information. If the item that you are looking for is not on that list, then you can look for it under the main tabs at the top of the page or the list of categories under Sussex Archery on the right hand side. Happy browsing.

Terry Maskell.
