Members Services & Notices
As discussed at the AGM, the club
want to encourage the offering and recommending of services between members. To
assist this, we have provided a Members Services binder to be kept in the
bookcase in the club room. This can be used to advertise things as diverse as
massage, physiotherapy, household services, holidays & accommodation and
other sporting events.
As space on the club room notice boards is now at a premium and required specifically at this time for the Maidenhead Easter 10, all personal items, currently occupying notice board space will be removed from the notice board and placed into the binder.
The club room notice boards are now to be used only for those items genuinely serving the club's interest. All other items will be removed.
Please check out the Members Services binder regularly and particularly when looking for a service. Personal contact and recommendation are worth a lot when investing.
Clubhouse Security
We have recently observed personal articles, (bags, clothing, etc.) left
unattended in the main clubhouse area.
Whilst the club can never guarantee the safety of such items, it must be
acknowledged that a chance thief would find it considerably easier to 'nip in'
and steal an item from the club room than to go through a closed door into the
changing rooms.
We ask therefore that bags and clothing be left only in
the changing rooms and not in the main club room of office.
There have also been several instances of park users wandering into to
the clubhouse to use the toilets. This must be
discouraged, as our toilets are part of our changing areas, where at any
time, there could be juniors and / or personal possessions. We have
agreed with the Bodyzone Gym, that we will ensure
that the public toilets (on the Astroturf side of the building) will be opened
whenever they or we are open and closed at other times, particularly overnight.
There is a key to the public toilets in the key safe next to the large
storeroom door. We also need to ensure that the clubhouse is locked and made
secure when we leave. Garry Jeffries will provide a key for copying to any
paid-up members needing access, and Garry has also put up a notice containing
'Last Person to Leave' instructions. All members are asked to familiarise
themselves with these.
It has also become apparent that members without keys can be inadvertently
locked-in! To address this, a main door key has been left behind the picture in
the office. This should only be used in an emergency and returned to its place
immediately after use.

Athlete Affiliation
The Athlete Affiliation requirement, introduced by England Athletics in 2007,
potentially affects ALL our members. For more information please download our Questions and
Answers document.
We are finding that more and more road race online & paper entry forms
are insisting on an affiliation number being specified in order to attract the
associated discount and recognition of club membership. All members who
regularly enter UKA licensed races should now consider this option when paying
their subscriptions for 2011/12.
