We will tie-in our service project with this programme. Pls read this carefully:

More details are found here:




We will set up 3 teams for each sections. All 19 of you will be grouped under 1 of these 3 sections. There will be a EXCO of 4 members for each section responsible doing up the project proposal, applying for the grant, completing the reports, attending the seminars & doing ALL the admin & finance paperwork.

As discussed with you previously, those not in the EXCO are spared the admin paper work but will serve their share of CIP time to fulfil the NYAA Silver requirements. Naturally, it is the 4 EXCO members of the 3 committees who will get the NYC/NCSS credit should their project be selected. The rest will get the credit as per NYAA Silver requisites.

As for who is going to be in what. I should this decision to be an exercise in initiative. If you are keen to do EXCO work, volunteer yourself. State the sections (ie. Fundraising, Volunteering or Public Outreach) you wish to be in under the comments to this post or email me. You have until 12 Apr to decide. After which I will appoint. Either way, you have to be in something somewhere. Make your involvement count!
