| Rediscover Your Roots |
Rediscover Your Roots - that's a phrase you'll be hearing quite a lot of during the year.
Linked to 2008 being the club's 85th anniversary, we are launching the Rediscover Your Roots campaign, which has two main objectives:
1) Contacting past members - the club has a large database of contact details but know there are some who aren't on there. This means we have no way of contacting them with club news and details of events (including the anniversary celebrations)! If you are an ex-member and would like to be added to our mailing list, then please let us know. Alternatively, should you know somebody who would like to be included, please pass on this message and ask them to contact us.
2) Attracting new members - as well as going back to the roots of the club, we also want to reach out to the roots of the region - that's you (and us!), the younger generation. We want to show everybody what Young Farmers is all about and give as many people the opportunity to get involved as possible. Why not come along to a meeting to see? You've nothing to lose!
So, keep your eyes peeled for further news - both on this website and in the local press! If you have any questions regarding any of any of the above, please email info@buckinghamyfc.co.uk and we'll will get back to you as soon as we can.
We look forward to hearing from you and seeing you soon! |
