As we enter into the report season the SURFs are now up and operational for the first official use. Through many tests and revisions we have a final product, but as with every live launch of something new, there are no doubt going to be some hiccups so please give this feedback to your relevant Command Staff to pass on to the Internet Department or contact the Internet Department directly.

The new reports can be found at www.star-fleet.com/webb/command/reports which links to all the relevant forms for all the positions that submit monthly fleet report forms.

Please contact the IDept for any assistance in using the reports.

The Awards have been held and the winners of each award has been announced. The drinks flowed freely and many from the ranks of www.star-fleet.com were in attendance ... my thanks goes to each of the presenters who presented awards ... including those who were called on to present at the last minute. I also want to especially thank Jack Dipper ... who assisted with setting up many of the awards for me ... in an effort to take of some of the load from me, especially during February.

The following is a list of the award winners

Newcomer - Jamie Hirst

Morning all,

With Rob's departure as Marketing and Advertising Coordinator, we're going to be on the lookout for a new one. This is an outstanding opportunity for anyone who has been looking to serve in a governmental capacity and give back a little something to the club we all love.

A sucessfull applicant will:

- Be enthusiastic and driven
- Have a number of very clear ideas to help develop and enhance our online presence
- Have a background in advertising or customer relations, though training will be provided and this is not essential.

Nominations have ended for the STF Awards for February 2009.

Please wait for the voting form. It'll go up within the next day.

Russell
Awards Administrator/Master of Ceremonies

Christmas Greetings to One and All

With Christmas upon us, Brian and I wanted to offer our fondest wishes to every member of our great club for a very Merry Christmas/Chanuka (That's how the wife spells it)/Festive Season and a Happy, Joyful and alcoholically responsible new year.

The term thus far has seen some outstanding accomplishments and I know I speak for the entire Government when I tell you what an honour it is to serve you all.

So with Bear hugs and Wolfe slobber, we give you a hearty Ho Ho Ho and a hope for a happy and satisfying 2009!
