Funeral of Terry Nortley

The funeral of Terry Nortley will be held on Monday at Radcliffe Crematorium 11am, followed by a gathering afterwards, of anyone who wishes to attend, at Stand Golf Club. Its is more than likely "family flowers only", will keep you appraised.

If anyone is attending the unveiling of the plaque for "The Terry Nortley Mile" at Close Park on Sunday I would advise you to get there by 2pm as parking could be an issue

It with sad news that I have to inform people of the death of Terry Nortley, President of Radcliffe AC. Terry had coached numerous local club athletes over the years and will be sadly missed by all who knew him. Once details of the funeral are available I will make them known.

CLGP AGM

The CLGP 2011 AGM is fixed for Wednesday 7th December at Gin Pit starting at 7.30pm.

I'll send out an agenda nearer the time. If anyone has any specific issue they would like to discuss at the meeting please let me know and I will add it to the agenda.

We will be setting the dates for the races in the 2012 CLGP Calendar at this meeting, so please be having a think on what date you want to host your race if you have not done so already.

Also if anyone is aware of any new clubs wishing to join the competition, could you get a representative from the club to get in touch with me so that they may attend the meeting.

Thank you.
