Lost & Found—some more items was left behind. Remember to collect please!

We only have a few events left before it’s end of the year. PLEASE let’s put in a huge effort to attend all the upcoming events. We know it’s difficult—exams...kids… year end functions… but let’s try! All will be so much fun.

RE: Birthday Celebration—Tom Jenkins. Daar sal ‘n houer met allhande bykomstighede wees om jouself mee te “versier”. As jy kan opdaag “fully dressed” sal dit wonderlik wees. Sit op dai

blou hare, trek aan daardie kruisbande—lyk soos ‘n minion—maar onthou…. jy is n “greenion”.

Ons jaarlikse vergadering vind plaas Dinsdag 20 November om 06h00. Ons vra asb dat elkeen sal probeer om ‘n draai te maak. Besluite word geneem , volgende jaar se komitee saamgestel en ook belangrike inligting word deurgegee. Ons poog egter om nie te lank te wees nie. Ons vra egter elkeen se bydrae en insette om Green Mile na nog beter hoogtes te vat! “Come raise your voice—good ...or Bad. We need to hear them both. Dankie byvoorbaat.

******* SURPRISE…..VERRASSING ******

Maar jy sal net weet as jy by die vergadering gaan wees!

Chairman’s Bit…

Beste Green Mile vriende,

Ok, saterdag is weer groot pret en ons gaan heerlik saam ons 3de verjaarsdag vier en ook saam met dit weer ‘n aanslag maak op die Tom Jenkins trofee vir die “jolliest bus” wat ons die afgelope 2 jaar gewen het. Sien uit na heerlike ietsie om te eet, heerlike koue “ververversings” , lekker saam lag en saam sing.

Dit is ook die laaste liga vir 2018, en met AGN se vergunning dat elkeen slegs 1 punt vir deelname gaan kry om te help dat klubs saamhardloop, weet ek ook ons gaan sommer ook die naweek se liga wen en ons volgende jaar in Divisie 2 bevind. Ons vra dus groot dat soveel moontlik van ons vriende kom saam hardloop en kuier, dit gaan epic wees en iets wat julle nie gou sal vergeet nie.

Kyk asb uit na ons Agenda vir ons AGM volgende week. Julle is baie welkom om te kontak met voorstelle en geselsies oor 2019 se beplanning, ons komitee, en enigeiets om ons GM nog beter en lekkerder vir almal te maak.

‘n great week vir julle, sien julle saterdag oggend. Baie liefde, Chris

Fascinating stats about the 21.1km world record !
