ASA VACANCIES
Publicity Volunteers
We badly need volunteers to help design
event and other publicity materials (flyers,
posters, tickets, ASA News, etc). Our
Secretary and Website Coordinator are
doing their best to keep things going, but
are hoping for anyone with a half decent
eye for layout and presentation to relieve
them of ’any other duties’. This role lends
itself to being split, and you don’t have to
join the ASA Committee .
Car Boot Coordinators
Last year’s season raised over £4,000
and we’re on target to smash that total
this year. But we’ll be losing our main
Coordinators when the season ends in
March. If we don’t replace them the future
of these key fundraising events may be in
jeopardy. Can you help?? No experience
necessary and you don’t have to join the
ASA Committee. You don’t even have to
like car boots, although it does help!
ASA Honorary Officers
At October’s AGM, our Honorary Officers
were elected for one final term of office.
Without replacements being found during
this year, the ASA will struggle to function.
