Hurry and buy your tickets as there are only ten table left! See TonyK or LindaD in canteen. More details here. And while you’re at it, return those sold raffle tickets too. Thanks for your support everyone.

Go to the Draws page and follow the links. Please note that some teams have games on the long weekend of June so cancel that ski trip!

2012 marks the 45^th year of this stalwart club. We will be celebrating with a Gala Dinner at Maso’s on Saturday 21 July from 7pm. A mere $65 gets you food, wine and beer, entertainment, comedy, music and special guests, along with raffles and some massive auctions. All proceeds go back to the club (and ultimately to you!).

Mark the date in your diary and expect to be approached by your manager/coach or a committee member to purchase your tickets. If you want to register your interest in forming a table of ten please email forestrangerspublicity@gmail.com. Hurry, as we only have a limited number of tickets for sale and they are already selling fast!

Have you bought your raffle tickets yet? A small investment of two dollars could win you a:

• trip for two to the Hunter Valley, including two nights accommodation, breakfast and dinner plus a $100 Brokenwood wine voucher
• two nights mystery break, including hotel and transfers (flying with Virgin Airlines)
• $500 Myer voucher
• $200 Dan Murphy’s voucher [ED’s pick of the bunch!]

See your coach/manger or Linda-with-an –I Dettman at the canteen to buy your tickets. All proceeds go to the Club – which means you.

Good luck!

Reminder that the May Coaches and Managers meeting is scheduled for this Wednesday, 2 May, at Maso’s from 8pm. We have a lot of important items to go through so please make a huge effort to get there. Remember at least one representative from each team is required to attend. Wear your Maso’s shirts too!

Go to the Draws page of our website and follow the links. Watch yer Inbox as your team may be rostered for duty…

The St George Association has been contacted by a charity collecting soccer boots and uniforms to send to schools in Sierra Leon. If you have boots from last season which either don’t fit or are no longer fashionable (!) please keep them if they are in a wearable condition (it would be nice to clean them too). We will let you know where to drop them off as soon as we work it out.

Thanks in advance for supporting a worthy cause.

Please check the St George website for ground closures. Note that Gannon’s park is closed and all games that were to be held there this weekend are cancelled and will be rescheduled at another time.

Hi all. As mentioned in the newsletter, please double-check the draw for this weekend on the St George website. Some games have changed due to wet weather.

Also keep checking back as we get more news about grounds and wet weather – we’ll do our best to keep you up-to-date (BTW Gannons Park is still closed…).
