<DIV><SPAN class=570424707-18022014><FONT size=4 face=Arial>I am sending this
email as a result of the recent Facebook RANTS that I was made aware of
yesterday,(as sugested in one post i should have seen it, i dont
live in FB world and dont intend to) in relation to the registering of
other groups or teams within the Club. First of all before I get into
what I am going to say and ask, I would like to say and i am sure that
many of you are aware that the Club entered into a sponsorship agreement a
number of years ago. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=570424707-18022014><FONT size=4

<DIV><SPAN class=570424707-18022014><FONT size=4 face=Arial>The sponsorship was
for a three year period and it was agreed that there would be no other kit
other than the Illawarra kit. This secured a significant amount of
funds for the Club. I am sure that many of you were aware of this and have
benefit from it. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=570424707-18022014><FONT size=4 face=Arial>There will also come
a day when we will lose the road circuit at West Dapto and so to hopefully
secure an of road circuit the club will need subsatntial funds to compliment any
grants that we would be hopefull of getting.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=570424707-18022014><FONT size=4 face=Arial>The issue of
registering groups or teams within the Club has been raised again. I set out to
negotiate with the sponsors on a way forward and put together a proposal that
was agreed on by the sponsors. The view was that these groups or teams
should contribute to the Club in the same fashion as a sponsor (there are other
clubs as dsecribed on the FB Rant that allow sponsored groups and teams. However
a large majority of these are also <STRONG>sponsors of the club they belong
to</STRONG>. So do contribute to their Club, ie they are a Club sponsor and
also sponsor a group within their Club). It is apparent that those with this
desire do not want to do that.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=570424707-18022014><FONT size=4 face=Arial>I have personally
taken offence from some of those who have posted their views regarding the
Committee on FB. In my view, FB is faceless and an easy way for people to attack
others. I wont be doing that; it wont be faceless. I could go on but will stop
here for now.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
