[SUMC] AGM

[SUMC Committee]

Good morning Climbers!

Happy second e-mail of the day. I would like to bring your attention to the
fact that the AGM date has been set for the 3rd of May and that there are
many committee positions that need filling for next year. If you think
you're friendly, responsible, approachable and organised and feel that you
have the skills to fill any of the roles listed below, then you should
definitely think about standing for a position! If you don't think you're
those things, but others think you are then you should also consider
standing. If you know you aren't any of these things and don't even want to
be part of the committee anyway then you should still come along as there
may well be free cookies and you can give us your feedback on how you think
this year has gone and how we can improve for next year.

Here is a description of each position as well as the name of the person
who currently holds it so that you know who to talk to if you're interested:

*President *(Charlotte Graves)

The head of the club and responsible for organising training sessions
(Monday and Thursday nights), day trips and weekend trips. Is the
main liaison with Sport Swansea and chairs committee meetings, providing
the agenda and delegating tasks to other committee members. The candidate
must be friendly, approachable, organised, responsible, authoritative,
safety conscious, committed and ready to put a lot of time and energy into
the club. They must be competent and knowledgeable in climbing matters both
indoors and outdoors but do not necessarily have to climb E-grades.

*Secretary *(Lydia Galloway)

Responsible for taking, writing up and circulating minutes from committee
meetings and booking accommodation for weekend trips (incl. liaison with
owners). Also is responsible for BMC memberships, helping with the
paperwork on Monday nights and general admin tasks. Although this may not
sound much, it cannot be overstated how important this role is. The
candidate must be very organised, professional, helpful, reliable and
efficient.

*Treasurer *(Matt Riordan)

Responsible for organising and keeping track of the club's finances both in
the tin and the club account. Responsible for collecting money on all club
trips and for liaising with the S.U. finance office. Must be organised,
trustworthy, reliable and have some affinity with numbers.

*Gear Rep *(Alex Linge)

Cares for and keeps track of all club equipment including trad gear,
bouldering mat, harnesses, shoes and ropes. Responsible for organising the
transport of the appropriate equipment to all club trips and for making
sure it all comes back. Makes sure that the equipment is safe for use by
club members but is NOT responsible for washing ropes. The candidate must
be organised and have some background knowledge in gear use, maintenance
and damage inspection as well as having somewhere safe and large enough to
keep it all.

*Training Officer (*Joe McCarty)

Manages the bouldering team and is responsible for everything related to
them including BUCS applications, transport, accommodation and training
sessions. Must be a competent and skilled boulderer with a knowledge of
training and technique. May also be involved in the running of general
training sessions for other club members such as learn to lead days/nights
and fear management courses. Must be committed to the team and able to
train at least three times a week.

*Social Sec *(Clare Garside)

Organises all socials and books all relevant rooms and transport as well as
informing members of what is occurring through facebook, e-mail and
announcements. Responsible for organising the Christmas ball with the
hiking club and making members feel welcome in the club. Must be really
friendly and approachable and, ideally, imaginative so that they can come
up with great social ideas.

*Management Rep (*Matt Everett)

Essentially an advisory role, the candidate must have committee experience
and be helpful and responsible.

*Web Sec *(Alex Wade)

Responsible for managing the SUMC website, our space on the S.U. website
and opening sign-ups etc. Must be fairly knowledgeable about web design/
maintenance.


Have a think about whether you are suitable for a role. You don't have
anything to lose by standing. Oh and we'll probably be heading for a fun
night in tooters afterwards to celebrate the end of a fantastic year!

I hope you all have a wonderful holiday!

Charlotte
