Dear All,

The East Cornwall Harriers AGM will take place on Thursday 26th March.

Every member should try to come along so that you take the opportunity to have your say on any and every issue that affects your club.

As everyone knows, the club can only function as a result of the dedication and hard work by the committee, coaches and members who volunteer throughout the year.

This year we will continue with the new format we introduced last year, lt;p> </p> <p>This year we will continue with the new format we introduced last year, where the evening will be split into two parts;</p> <p> </p> <p>Firstly: the formal AGM business.</p> <p>Secondly: a social event with a <strong>free buffet </strong>and the annual club awards.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong><em>There will be no run that evening</em></strong>.

This is so that anyone, including members who cannot attend, can have an influence by nominating any club member for inclusion on the shortlist. The award need not necessarily be related to actual running, it could be for the person you think has contributed most to the club during the year.</p> <p> </p> <p>See you all there.</p> <p>Rob</p>...

Deb Phillips. Deb has completed her first half marathon at Mousehole this month and done extremely well in her first year with the club. Well done Deb.

A few intrepid runners took to the Liskeard streets to test 7 of the local pubs, I am sure a great time was had by all (I certainly enjoyed it) and it stayed DRY.

Most of us had half pints a few took it really serious and opted for the FULL pints in every pub we visit.

Thank you REVIS for organising it !!

Just to reinforce the message below, I really hope everyone can make it along - you can banish those so-called mid-January blues !

It's a great opportunity for the whole club to get together irrespective of what day you normally run - you never know you may find there are loads of nice people in those other groups.

Imagine - you will even have the chance to see what your fellow club members look like with their clothes on !

A big thank you to Lyndsey for organising this event - please all support her and m this event - please all support her and make it a great night for all ECH members and friends.</p> <p>See you there.</p> <p>Rob</p>...
