Posted by Russell on 28 Sep 2010

The 2012 London Olympic volunteering programme is a fantastic and unique opportunity for North London residents and partners to contribute towards the success of the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games as a volunteer ‘Games Maker’. The aim of the Games Maker programme is to recruit two thirds of the 70,000 volunteers needed for the games and the biggest opportunity individuals will get to apply to be a volunteer at this once-in-a lifetime opportunity. Applications close on 27th October 2010.

You can find more about the Games Maker programme on the London 2012 site here.

Old website

Posted by Martin on 26 Sep 2010

I like the new website.  Congratulations Russell. WordPress looks good and will hopefully encourage all members to use the website to its full potential.

I have redirected the previous url to this site (as search engines will take ages to forget it).

You can still access the old site material at http://www.psib.org.uk/vkbarnet/last-index.html

VK Barnet Fun Quiz Night

Posted by Sean on 25 Sep 2010

Tonight’s planned Quiz Night has been cancelled due to a lack of interest.

Bit of a shame really as it would have raised something in the region of £250-£300 toward club funds !

Thanks and apologies go to those 8 club members who expressed an interest in attending tonight and thanks to Petra for taking the time to print off all the forms for the quiz.

We may set another date for the quiz later in the season.
