Hi guys
Great to see 70 of you at training on Wednesday and ALL of the Year 5 Boys' group - the only group to do so.
This is just to let you know that our Awards Dinner on Thursday 24 September has now been BOOKED OUT - we have just over 200 attending and the Ocean Lodge cannot legally take any more unfortunately.
Cheers
Paul:)
See you next Thursday IN the Avon with PHIL COSTLEY.

PSC CC Team News 20.8.09
Hi everyone
Wow, we had the worst weather of the last few weeks for our run on Tuesday at Halswell! Well done to all the hardy runners who turned up in the rain and wind to fight the hills of Halswell! I certainly slipped over a few times and my socks are still soaking, trying to get the mud out...aaahhh the joys of Cross Country!
All the best to many of you running in the Canterbury Road Championships this Saturday.
Well done to former PSC CC Team members who have made the NZ Sec. Schools team to the WORLD Sec. Schools Cross Country Champs in SLOVAKIA next April 2010 - Margot Gibson and Jake Stamper (Jake's brother Caleb is in the team this year). Former member Jaye Atkin is also a reserve.
There is lots of important information below as there is ONLY 5 WEEKS to go today!!! That is 35 days to the IRXC09!!!
1. Fees: The final day for FULL payment of fees was last Tuesday. If you haven't paid, please do so by next Wednesday at Southbrook Park or let Ann-Marie Findlay s.ann-marie@xtra.co.nz (027) 6750272 know.
Can we have final payments and any remaining consent forms sent to PO Box 8523 Riccarton, ChCh.
Awards Dinner Booking Form
6. Uniform Orders: We hope both the Polo shirts and Jackets/Shorts will be available on Wednesday at Southbrook Park. Sean from the Shoe Clinic says he has some new spikes in at the Riccarton store, any questions just ask him. A reminder you need PLAIN black shorts/ bike pants (if you don't have the PSC CC Team ones) to run in at Nelson and also BLACK track pants. So borrow some or buy some if you don't have any please.
