Welcome to the September edition of our electronic newsletter. The main news item last month was the fast approaching Oggie 8 Challenge. Thankfully the weather was with us this year and the event attracted more teams and competitors than ever. The result was a great time was had by all and the course record was smashed comprehensively. A big thank you to all those who helped out with the event or took part or even raised sponsorship money. Without your help and support the event would not have been the success it was so thank you very much for al your help. This coming Sunday will see the 333 scramble day. Starting by Llyn Ogwen at 10.00hrs Dave Salter will be guiding us up a route which will prove entertaining I am sure, details below and booking essential. The AGM is fast approaching and building on previous year we have lined up two speakers who will provide the evening entertainment followed by a buffet at the Tyn Y Coed. Tickets are now available for the Buffet in the evening. The AGM in the afternoon is free to members. This past six weeks have been very busy for the team with a record number of call outs this year, we currently stand at 83, team members are considerably stretched but still maintain their high level of preparedness with regards to the demand upon them. You can read all about their most recent efforts below but if you want to see in full exactly what they have been up to then click on the link to the website and you can view all the callouts in detail. Thank you for your continued support of 333 and we hope you will find time to come along to one of the events sometime in the future.

Oggie 8 2009 - A Big Thank You

On the 8 August we ran the Oggie 8 for the second time in what proved to be excellent weather. With 21 teams and 90 people taking part this years event was bigger than ever.  The run up to the event had been fraught with problems but each one was overcome to the organisers relief. More 333 members were in support this year than ever before and each checkpoint was manned for added security. With tea, soup and buns available at the half way stage morale was high throughout the event. The organisers would like to thank
