Everyone is expected to participate. Friends and significant others are welcome to volunteer as well.

Volunteers should e-mail Jim Nordin with their availability: jim.nordin@rogers.com They should include their e-mail address,cell number, if they have Smart Serve and t-shirt size. If they are bringing a female volunteer along then they should make note of that so we get a women’s t-shirt. We are looking at a volunteers party after the event since there is no drinking alcohol while working. Please email to acquire the schedule: leepowell@rogers.com

2) The Bytown Rugby Foundation is up and running: www.bytownrugbyfoundation.com. People can donate for either Bytown Blues only or EORU players and the George Fortier Scholarship.

3) There will be a silent auction at the closing banquet to raise funds for the Foundation. Anyone that can score us something to auction off would be great. If you can get something contact Lee Powell: leepowell@rogers.com
