MHBP Launch party! (help needed)

Guys, given my present state of broken I'm not likely to be able to help that much. I'm also perhaps not the best advert for the joys of polo. I'll defo be down for the party and might be fit for helping out at the lion, but probably best to find a sub for the bits I was down for.

I'll hit up Will's Wheels. If hangover allows I'll swing by Neil's later for flyers.

Did Manchester students union, Edin bike coop and Evans Deansgate today...

Could you bring my share of the flyers tomorrow?

I also want more flyers and posters. Can pick them up tonight from where ever they are. (Neil?)

Shona at KP briefly mentioned the subject of prizes when I brought this up; I wasn't sure what the arrangement is. Can some one feed me in on this?

If anyone can get prizes from anywhere that would be ace ! just give them to me to look after until the event. As it would be easier to keep them all together, and I can think about who wins what for what etc before.

People should donate prizes if they can/are suitable.

Emma - we should pool all the donated prizes (I have around five suitable tings and I'm sure Rob has a few too) and agree a way in which to disperse them

I will get a trophy sorted for the Polo Cat winners.

I've got loads of crap for prizes.

Rob you can't give away your child.

Also Minutes, from what I could decipher from the paper:
Minutes Link!!

Anyone already signed up to Manchester wheelers? If so can you post about the party on there.

More flyers! Where do I get them?

I need to pick some up tomorrow.

I am childbound until the weekend as Thea is living in the library until she has finally shat out this *%%&$&£ essay.

Ergo, nolo. Also could someone possibly drop off some flyers through my door? I can drop some in to EBC on my way home from work before the weekend that way, otherwise I'll grab some from a responsible grownup on saturday.

Rob - I'll drop flyers at yours tomorrow mid-morn.

Coolio, cheers man.

Clot of fixie skidders in Salford Quays yesterday ;) - Neil - DONE

Neil, the guy I know from ITV says his producer is interested, I've given him manchesterpolo@gmail.com and both of our phone numbers to sort things out.

Actually he's been given polo@mhbp.co.uk but that now forwards to the address above, so we can hand that out as a general address now if people ask for it, also if anyone else wants theirname@mhbp.co.uk it can be set up as a forwarding address if you have official polo business that you might need an email address for.

I'm gonna do my bit of the list above today, the only one I'm not going to have time for is velodrome Evans, will someone else be able to do that this weekend, probably a good idea to do in the velodrome itself as well.

Evans Velodrome - Ain't gonna have time, there are about 20 flyers left, if someone could leave just a few at the Evans, the Velodrome and the BMX track, they'd be alright in my books

er no mention of Great Northern Rollers anywhere on the flyer or even roller racing in the publicity?....
and looking at the schedule, 1 hour of roller racing? thats an optimistic maximum of 12 races ie a normal qualifying round. I sent neil an email ages ago with all this stuff but got no reply.

Hi Ben, Neil is away at the moment, so he will probably get in touch with you soon. I have sent you a private message :)

cheers missy, im replying x

Neil, Chan, Rob & Drew can you make MHBP launch party meeting @ the Black lion Tuesday 8pm?

Be prepared, as we need to organise/finalise the following, less than a week to go!

Advertising
Polo cat (checkpoints/challenges/map/rules)
GNR roller racing (format/transport/set up)
Timescales (for everything)
People doing what & when (confirm availability/ability)
Prizes (need to get together & decide for what prize for what win)

Please add anything else, so we can all think about it/ do something about it beforehand if possible.

Cheers :)
