Cyprus Camp:
"Dear All, 

I am just writing to remind you all of the impending closing date for this year’s Offshore Camp to Cyprus .  I need your deposit at the very latest by 31 January to book a space on the trip.  If you can please advise me by email if your child intends to go.  I have provisionally booked flight seats but I need to ascertain if I have enough.  All cheques are to be made payable to FSCSC and the deposit is £100 for each swimmer.  Any questions do not hesitate to ask and I look forward to hearing from you.

 Regards

Jane Burry (janeburry@tiscali.co.uk)

 PS   Please pass cheques to me directly or place in a sealed envelope on Noticeboard at the Leisure Centre and I will collect it"

Please be advised that the venue for the AGM (Wed 21 Nov) has changed from QE School to Ferndown Leisure Centre.  Though the QE facilities are better, too many members are unable to get there as their children are swimming at Ferndown.

The meeting will run from 6:00pm to 7:00pm. Please be prompt as the Gun Club has the room booked after us and it may not be well advised to run into their allocated time.

The agenda for the meeting is attached as well as the minutes from last year's AGM.  Hard-copies of the new proposed constitution, last year's minutes, the Chairman's report and the Treasurer's report will be available at the meeting.

Agenda 2006 Minutes
