Okay the Relay for Life is coming up and James suggested that we put a group together to help raise our profile and also help those with Cancer. Now James has had a few things crop up and is unable to help out, however there are a few others of us keen to put together a group. You can find more details about it here http://www.relayforlife.org.nz/index/event?EventID=35 Its on March 7, 2009 Key points: * Teams consist of 10 or more: a Team Captain is elected, a Team name selected, and members submit a registration fee which will vary according to where the event is being held. Teams are encouraged to set and achieve their own FUNdraising goals in advance of the Relay and to be as creative as they wish about how they will walk, stroll or run around the track. FUNdraising can be achieved on either an individual basis or as a team. * At least one member of the team should be on the track for the duration of Relay to keep the baton passing. They are encouraged by their supporters and the electric and celebratory atmosphere that is created by the trackside entertainment and the vibrancy of everyone camping together overnight. * After you have registered you will receive a thank you confirmation, a login and password and access to the team captain and team member pages. * Cost $15 per person + whatever fund raising we can make So can I have a show of hands please who would like to help out. Liz ps. Yes this is completely un linux related, however i figure it gets the name noticed, we may be able to get some media coverage, and its good PR
