New Website
Club
Members,
In our
discussions earlier this year it was clear that a significant proportion of you
wanted an up-to-date website for the club containing the information you wanted
to reference and available to attract new members.
The
website
www.baRUNNER.org.uk
has now been built for that purpose. Remember the name to pass it on – “be a
runner org’anisation uk”. This email is the unofficial launch of that website.
It will be officially launched in the New Year once it is more complete.
The
website already contains up-to-date “News”, “Results” and “Diary” sections.
Please note that the procedure for submitting news, results and diary
suggestions to the Club remain as before with emails to the relevant club
members – there are “Tell Us” buttons on the website to initiate emails for
these purposes. Paul Brandon and others know to copy me in on updates for the
website.
There
are many other pages on the website for other useful information. However many
of these are blank. This is your club and the website is to promote your club
so I would like you to provide the content to fill the yellow spaces on these
pages. If your content is of the type that only needs to be updated once or
twice a year then just write it and send it to me as a formatted Microsoft Word
or Excel document (or other format). If the content ought to be updated more
frequently than twice a year then contact me first since we need to devise a way
of keeping it up-to-date without creating too much ongoing work. There are
currently pages for the following awaiting your input or review:
·

Then
what about Track&Field? Orienteering? Cross-Country? Park Runs? Relays? If you
think that it would be good to have a page on a topic that I haven’t put in the
menus then make the suggestion – if I agree that it will enhance the site then
I’ll adapt the menus to fit it in.
