SPRINT Issue 63 - Spring 2018

COMMITTEE UPDATE
Your new committee have already formally met a few times and we are all
excited to get stuck in! It was decided that an update of some of the things
we discussed and important and/or exciting stuff to look out for over the
coming weeks would be provided for SPRINT magazine from now on to help
keep members up-to-date.
First and foremost, you’ll all be most excited to hear that samples of our new
Club Vests are whinging their way to us. These will be available to try on at
Club nights over the coming weeks so you can decide which size and style to
order as your replacement. Once received, we intend to have a cross-over
‘grace’ period in which both vests will be allowed to be worn when racing,
with the final switch over date set for 1 st August. From that date onwards, the
new design will be our sole official vest and must be worn for UKA races
onwards. This will hopefully give people plenty of time to get their new vest
ordered and collected. Watch the Facebook page and your emails for more
information. (NB – for team purposes i.e. DRRL, all members of the team
must wear the same vest to be counted however it doesn’t matter whether it
is the old or new version during the cross-over, so a bit of forward planning
might be needed.)
Staying on the subject of Club Kit, we are delighted to announce the
formation of an online shop for all your Poole Runners needs coming soon!
We would like to take this opportunity to thank Miriam for all the work she
has done over the years in ordering and distributing our vests for us. We are
still in the process of planning the ‘shop’ and deciding what will be available
on it, but I think we all agree it should make things more streamlined, with
ordering and payments being able to be made online.
