Topic : Inland Event Write up

I may be short of a volunteer with a litarey bent to do the write up for the Inlands this weekend. Any one who has the interest and skills to write up a short piece on the event please let me know.

Thanks

Isn't that the very job we have a Publicity Secretary on the committe for (Or one off them.) she is sailing at the weekend, should be able put a report together and get it (Results and a few column inches too.) on the wire to Y&Y Sail YBW Scuttlebut and Mags within a very short time!

Ah but what happened to the Nationals report!
We in the B14s, designate a team of 2 if the main writers need a break and then one of our 2 editors/writers proof the article prior to publication. Much easier if shared responsibility.
Anyway have fun writing it.
Bye for now

It is especially important to keeping sponsors, they need to justify from a commercial purpose their contribution, and a good write up, publicised widely with their names prominently mentioned is important.

By the way, the event sponsors are
- Fullers Beer
- Dynamic Sails
- P&B
- Speed Sails
- Craft Insure
all sponsoring through prize contributions

Mags, I think going forward, it would be nice (additional justification to the sponsors) to put up the Logos of event sponsors and click through to their sites on the Merlin site, during the couple of months event build up and months after when the results are still interesting.

I am part of the Publicity Committee but deal with Advertising so am not a report writer upper and haven't been asked to. 

More importantly I am not not actually able to attend this weekend now so won't be there anyway.
