Hey Guys
So I placed an order today for 30 hoodies including the committee’s ones too. If there is anyone else that needs a hoody or wants one can they please get in touch with me by Wednesday this week and I can get them added to the order! The final cost which includes a little bit of discount is €23. I know it’s 3 euro more than we intialy though but its still cheaper as i managed to get a few bob taken off due to the big “R” and the fact we’re students and are broke half the time. Now i’ll be collecting some of the money this Wednesday at choir and will also the Wednesday we’re back from Mid-Term, the 24th of March. As soon as the hoodies are in and provided you’ve paid you’ll get one of our new hoodies and will be able to wear it around college or cuel up in it as i must admit they look very comfy! 
Anyways have a good week and see you all on wednesday!

Fri 7th — Sunday 9th — Trip away!
Trip Away
So this trip away will be super dee dooper (www.gospelrising.com). The committee are meeting on Wed to discuss how we can lower the costs of the trip, but at the moment the cost for the trip away will be €85 per person. This covers everything from workshops to accommodation to shows to gigs to the whole lot. It does not include food (apart from breakfast) or travel, but car pools will sort the transport and food shouldnt be too bad. We can have a fund raiser and lower costs that way, we will come back to you about this on wednesday. Perhaps busking would be the answer! If we get a decent amount in this should lower costs by €10-€15 per person — will let u know asap about this. We are also going to apply for a special events fund from the union, will keep ye updated. Am just letting you know the maximum cost, but it shouldn’t work out this much. We will need numbers for this as soon as is possible as the organisers need numbers. I can also tell ye off the record that Jack L is coming to the festival to do a workshop with the people there, this will be a great way to end the wknd on the sunday! We will be staying in a hostel in Ennis and the sooner we get a booking in the cheaper it will be, so again I need numbers people. We will talk to you about this on Wed anyway, but have a think about it before then so that we can have an idea of who is coming on wednesday night.
Ok thats about it for now. Oh, sorry to be selfish but here is a little plug of my own.. have started a myspace page… it’s www.myspace.com/eimearfox
Would love you guys to support me on this if possible! Thanks guys.
See ye on Wed.…

Hey Guys,
Your new PRO (Public Relations Officer) here, Tom Connor for those who haven’t met me yet.
Ok guys well about 22 of you signed my sheets on Wednesday but I know not everyone could make it so if you could email me at with your name prefered size and contact info (either mobile or email address) if you want a hoody. I’ve been in contact with the usual crowd about our lovely hoodies but in times of recession I am going to have a look around to see what deals I can get and also to make sure we all get good hoodies. I know Eims said roughly €20 on Wednesday and I’ll do my best to keep it at that
Also guys and gals if you have any male friends who sing, be it in the shower, whilst playing sport or simply are like me and never stop singing please drag them to choir and they can team up with us lovely lads and lasses in the tenors and basses.
I think that’s it and if you’ve any queries for me use the gospel email and address it to me or use my NUIM email above!!
Tom x
