Welcome to AOUG in the East Midlands (05)
Welcome | Newsletter | Diary Dates | Memory Lane
In the light of this Region still being without an Executive Representative in post, I am undertaking to keep things going for all the Regional members. You should all have received a letter from me either by e-mail, or by post, explaining the current situation and requesting that volunteers come forward to run individual events, act as local contacts or even consider being co-opted as the Executive Representative until next May.
I am very pleased to say that several members have expressed interest in being involved and they are now assisting at organising events within the area, but more involvement is always welcome.
The previous Executive Representative, Jill Caine, had organised a visit to Lincoln which Jean and I attended, and which I hope you read all about in the Spring OMEGA, and then recently I arranged a day out to Nottingham, which is written up on your Newsletter page. Other members have also organised the various activities which are advertised on your Diary Date page, so please make every effort to support each other by attending these events.
The Summer OMEGA has now arrived in the OU post room so will be arriving on your doorstep. Please take time to read it fully and to let me know your opinions of the contents and the new photo layouts. Our new printers can offer us so much more variety with images. In addition to OMEGA we are trying to increase communications to members by sending out Regional newsletters but as with everything else postage costs are rising, so our intention is to use e-mail as much as possible. If you have an e-mail address, please make sure that the AOUG Office has your up to date one to ensure that you do not miss out.
Hoping to hear from each of you very soon.
AOUG Chairman - Ramsey Hertzog
