THE OLD MONMOTHIAN CLUB

Boat Naming Ceremony

On Saturday 17th May 2008, Monmouth School Rowing Club held a boat naming ceremony to officially launch the new boats in their fleet. The Club made a major financial contribution towards the 1st VIII, which was named "Old Monmothians".
In his short speech Roger Atkins evoked the memory of all those past Monmothians who have been fortunate to enjoy the experience of rowing at Monmouth School. It was noted that the Monmouth Schools stand alone now in being the only schools in the Haberdashers group to offer rowing as part of the curriculum.

STANDING ORDERS

All the activities of the Club, which includes the running of the OM WEBalumnus site (£9,000.00 per annum) together with various applications from the School(tours, etc.) are funded mainly by the Standing Orders set up by 812 Members (out of some 2,680 OMs).

The Club could make much more significant contributions if those non Standing Order payers signed up for say £20 per half year. It would also mean that they would receive a regular copy of the Monmothian Magazine.

Members are reminded of the qualifications for receiving the Monmothian Magazine, in that the following categories apply. The Magazine will only be sent to the following:

1. Standing Order Payers
2. Cash Payers
3. Junior Members(School leavers who have left within 7 years)
4. Former Headmasters
5. Honorary Members

The financial help from Members who have set up Standing Orders for the benefit of the Club has again proved invaluable over the past financial year and has enabled us to look favorably upon the various applications received during this year.
