As we prepare for the biggest gathering of QRC alumni ever, a small reminder and some simple information:
Sunday December 27th
QRC grounds
Start time 11:00AM
Music by DJ Colin Chambers and Jus Jase
Contribution: $100 and your coolers.
All the football, cricket etc, has been arranged and trophies procured for the highly anticipated Local-based vs Foreign-Based contest. Kindly arrive on time to ensure a smooth programme of events. The times and rules have been provided already to all participants.
PLEASE, PLEASE, please….we implore you…walk with your drinks both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. The TT$100, payable on entry if not received in advance, is going to the school projects that we fund throughout the year. The event is not an all inclusive. We try very, very hard to keep the expenses for the event to a minimum enabling the contributions that YOU make as attendees benefit the school on your behalf to the maximum. Due to the economic downturn, unfortunately, we have been unable to secure the type and amount of sponsorship we would have liked and we still kept the contibution at $100. You can of course contribute more if you so desire…as Dion would say…”doh be shy.“
There will be food on sale from a vendor at the event for a limited time for those of you choosing not to bring food with you. However, if you want to cook a pot or grill some meat, there will be an outlet to showcase your culinary skills against Adam and Gerard after 6:30PM
You will be given a participatory band to wear during the day. This guarantees your participation in the events carded and show of support financially for the college.
No parking will be allowed on the grounds on the day. The courtyard and field are being utilized for activities during the day such as the cricket match.
No glass bottles will be allowed onto the playing field and we are expected to utilize the various garbage receptacles placed on the compound to keep the College clean. We, the committee, opted not to pay for a cleaning service as this cuts into the benefits that your contibutions make to the school. We all did a good job last year in a collective clean up effort and we expect nothing less this time around.
Tickets are still available from any of the committee members. Call us and we can come to you. For those of you who cannot attend and still want to contribute, you can also purchase a ticket in support it will be given to someone a little less fortunate to attend or your contribution will go directly toward the projects. The Foreign-Based crew can of course make their contributions at the door on the day.
You are encouraged to invite as many of your fellow alumni and supporters as possible, so spread the word. All are invited to attend. There are many gaps in years of attendance…we want to bridge that gap. From 1940 to 2009, all are welcome.
We are still trying to get the QRC Polo shirts for sale on the day but definitely there will be the North Zone Champions Juhzees available in various sizes.
If you are bringing your kids, please be mindful to cater for them (Chubby,snacks etc.) and note that there will be lots of alcohol and some language that may not be fit for your children’s ears.
Everything is set for a most brilliant day of camaraderie, sport, picong and imbibement. QRChaps is looking forward to another hugely successful event.
Kind regards
Magnum Est QRC!
Willard McIntyre
Chairman
Quite Respectable Chaps
