29th Sep '04Trinity rules the waves!by mcp
Further to Iain's post of the 1st of June, congratulations to Andrew Fisher, club Captain in 2002-2003, who was invited to stand for the post of CUBC Honorary Secretary and has taken on this important role for 2004-2005.

Extraordinarily, this means that 2 of the 3 Honorary Secretaries this year are First and Third. The "Hon Sec's" are responsible for most of the day to day organisation of rowing and the official CUCBC races on the Cam.

We can surely look forward to not only better run races but, one hopes, even fewer fines! ;-)
28th Sep '04Social Events at 1&3by LW
As the new KSS, I feel it's my responsibility to get people looking forward to a new year of bopping, formalling, and other fun activities. Please sign up on the Social 04/05 list if you want to hear about any of these fantastic events.
This term, the main events on the calender are the Fresher's Cocktails, Club Formal [provisionally 9th Oct], the boathouse BBQ, the Fireworks party, a Novice-Senior Formal, and of course the end of term carnage that is the post dinner Fairbairns bop! Of course there will be the obligatory formals against rival boat clubs - let me know your particular favourites/most hated rivals.
This is mainly working on the timetable from last year, so if there's anything [sporting events, meals out, trips, more drunken foolery - you get the idea] you would like to see added, please let me know asap, and I'll do my best to organise it.
Well that's all, have a great term!
30th Aug '04The website 2004-05by mcp
As people will be aware, there is currently no webmaster for the coming academic year.

We need somewhere in college for the webserver to live.
If you read this and are living in a set in college next year, please consider volunteering to have it in your room.
- The main responsibility is to keep it plugged in & switched on and restart it very occasionally as the need arises.
- It is a normal sort of PC (but without a screen) in a tallish tower style case.
- If you have your own computer you can still use the internet etc.

Secondly, we need somebody who wants to learn some basic Linux skills to help keep the PC up-to-date.
Like any computer, the webserver occasionally needs security patches & needs somebody to liase with college. This doesn't need to be the same person who is looking after the computer. Iain and I are both happy to stay involved to help with backup, support and tuition as required. Iain had no linux or programming experience when he took on the job - all that's really needed is a desire to learn about it.

Ideally, you might have thought about taking on the webmaster committee position!
As Iain will testify, being webmaster is a great opportunity to learn about writing web pages in html and, if you want, to develop some computer programming and sql database skills. These are valuable skills sought after in the big wide world and make a fine addition to any CV alongside a cambridge degree and rowing!

Take the credit for running the world's best rowing club website...
Keeping the site up-to-date with all the club's news and results ensures our website remains famous as the best club site out there - and in reality is very little work from day to day. It is great fun running something used so regularly by the hundreds of past and present members.

If you think you might be interested you can email Iain and I with any questions using webmaster@firstandthird.org.
