PRESIDENT’S APPEAL<br />

Gentlemen<br />

Your <strong>Association</strong> needs members with long arms, and<br />

short pockets!<br />

Do not turn <strong>the</strong> page!!!!!<br />

The <strong>Old</strong> <strong>Scarborians</strong> <strong>Association</strong> needs funds to continue<br />

<strong>the</strong> twice yearly <strong>is</strong>sue <strong>of</strong> <strong>Summer</strong> <strong>Times</strong> and to<br />

continue to meet <strong>the</strong> Web site costs.<br />

The production and delivery <strong>of</strong> two <strong>is</strong>sues <strong>of</strong> <strong>Summer</strong><br />

<strong>Times</strong> a year, and <strong>the</strong> hosting costs <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> web site,<br />

costs approximately £1,600 a year, and o<strong>the</strong>r than a<br />

few membership fees each year <strong>the</strong> <strong>Association</strong> <strong>is</strong> dependent<br />

on donations to survive.<br />

I am sure you will all agree with me that <strong>the</strong> magazines,<br />

and web site, are superb links without which<br />

<strong>the</strong> contact between us all would slowly wi<strong>the</strong>r and<br />

die.<br />

Over <strong>the</strong> years a number <strong>of</strong> members have kindly donated<br />

funds and during <strong>the</strong> last few months donations<br />

were made that covered <strong>the</strong> costs <strong>of</strong> th<strong>is</strong> <strong>is</strong>sue. For<br />

<strong>the</strong>se <strong>the</strong> committee <strong>is</strong> very grateful.<br />

Please read <strong>the</strong> pieces that follow by <strong>the</strong> Secretary,<br />

Treasurer and Editor for greater detail.<br />

If you feel, as an individual, or as a firm, that you can<br />

help us finance <strong>the</strong> future <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> OSA <strong>the</strong>n please give<br />

generously - every tenner helps!<br />

Many thanks to those who have already contributed<br />

th<strong>is</strong> year.<br />
