The Chair advised that she had recently received notification from the Helensburgh Amateur Athletic Club (HAAC) indicating that the would like to use the wood to host the RAAA Cross Country Relays on the afternoon of Saturday 18th October 2014.  HAAC indicated that they expected no more than 100 runners. 

 

Mr Macbeth advised that the group are extremely well organised and that at the events in 2010 and 2011 they ensured that there were marshals at different points and had put up tape to direct the runners.  He also advised that the clear up process was well managed. 

 

Mr McCracken advised that he had recently issued an events pack and was awaiting its return.  He advised that the pack would provide further details in terms of the routes to be taken within the wood. 

 

Ms Martin advised that she believed there to be an entry fee for the race.  She suggested that Lynsey Innis issue a similar email as (outlined above to Tri-events) to the organisers, however she suggested that we may want to ask for clarity regarding any entry fee. 

 

Having noted all of the above, the Committee agreed on the course of action outlined.  The Chair requested that an update be provided to the next meeting of the group.
