The CUCBC Committee From tom at cucbc.org Thu Oct 4 08:28:35 2012 From: tom at cucbc.org (Tom Grimble) Date: Thu, 4 Oct 2012 09:28:35 +0100 Subject: [CUCBC Coxes] CUCBC Committee Positions Message-ID: Dear all CUCBC are looking to recruit people for the last few roles on this year's Committee. There are 2 open positions, which are open to *any* member of the College boat clubs. If you have enjoyed College rowing and competing, this is a brilliant way of helping make it a great success in Cambridge. The bumps and many of the other races throughout the year could not run without the enthusiasm and organisation behind the scenes. Getting involved with CUCBC is not the massive commitment some think it is and many of the jobs fit in very nicely with a typical college rowing schedule and races you would be involved in anyway. In no way will it stop you from being able to compete in Bumps or any other race. While the jobs listed below are quite specific roles, there is the opportunity to help with all of the CUCBC races throughout the year. These responsibilities are shared between all the committee members, so you won't be swamped by a massive job on your own! If you would like to run for any of the positions listed below, please just get in touch (tom at cucbc.org). Also if you would like to know more about any of the jobs, please do not hesitate to contact us. Junior Treasurer The Junior Treasurer takes responsibility for the day-to-day running of CUCBC's finances, including drawing up and distributing bills to the College Boat Clubs and preparing the budget with the Senior Treasurer. They also have a key role in organising entries to CUCBC races. Events Secretary The events secretary helps with the organisation and running of CUCBC races. While overall responsibility for the CUCBC events will be divided between committee members (so you will not have to do everything!), the events secretary helps out with arranging umpires and organising and distributing umpiring kit. You will also liaise with the producers of the Bumps programmes and arrange the presentations and upkeep of the University medals and trophies. A fun job if you want to get involved with running races on the Cam! Both of these positions can be co-opted by the current Executive Committee. There is also an open position for the Honorary Secretary of CUBC, which is elected separately. If you are interested please contact us for more information. We look forward to hearing from you.

Boating is restricted to University crews, first VIIIs, men's crews in the top 2 divisions of the May Bumps and women's crews in the top division of the May Bumps as well as first fours and tub pairs. Members of crews permitted to boat under a Yellow Flag may do so in fours or small boats (i.e. single and double sculls and pairs) with the express permission of the Club Captain and/or Boatman. Outlook: Very strong winds forecast for tomorrow morning, which would definitely not be suitable for any novice outings. The flag will be checked again before lighting down tomorrow morning.

The draw and timetable have now been published and based on this we require umpires from *1:30pm* until *3:30pm* on each day and perhaps a little bit later on Friday. We will be meeting at the P&E at 1:30pm each day to prepare for the races. Umpiring is a really fun way to get much more involved in college rowing and is almost certainly the best way to watch a race! Please contact me if you are interested in helping on any of the days next week.

We are still very short of people and do not yet have anywhere near enough people to run the races. I am currently drawing up a rota to fill the other roles and colleges will be required to provide people for their assigned slots or face penalties. However if you get people to sign up before I publish the rota you will be able to choose which days you marshal. Also please remember that marshals should be experienced members of clubs who have raced before on the Cam. Many thanks!
