  3. Hey folks, there has been some further news regarding the South Mainland Up Helly Aa. The site is now live, and although it doesnt contain much content due to their being no committee yet, or Jarls, it will be used to promote any news - as well as here on shetlink :)

     

    The web address is http://www.southmainlanduphellyaa.co.uk and details of the forthcomming mass meeting of all guizers has been posted up.

     

    We would appreciate it if you could take the time to read this :)

     

    Look forward to seeing another good crowd at this meeting 8)

  4. Righty Ho folks, after a well attended meeting on monday (thanks to all of those who turned up :D ), a steering group has been formed with the intentions on sorting out some of the details with regard to holding an Up Helly Aa in the south mainland.

     

    From the great response & enthusiasm shown at the general meeting, it has been decided that there is enough folk interested to create a South Mainland Up Helly Aa. Obviously, as it is new, and time is not on our side with the first event proposed to take place next year its going to be a busy 13 months ahead.

     

    The dates for the South Mainland Up Helly Aa are: Friday 12th March 2010 (Up Helly Aa Night) & Saturday 13th March 2010 (Hop Night).

     

    Venues etc will be released once they have been decided etc.

     

    Anyone interested in taking a squad to this event are asked to express their interest via email to info@southmainlanduphellyaa.co.uk

     

    Squad numbers are being restriced to a maximum of 16 people due to fire regulations in the venues Squads can be all male / all female or mixed.

     

    A Mass Meeting is to be held in the Sandwick Social Club on Monday the 23rd of March 2009 @ 8PM , at which point a Committee will be elected and hopefully 3 Jarls will be appointed - All potential squads are welcome to attend.

     

    It has also been suggested that comittee members will not have to stand as future Jarls, but will have the option should they wish to. The steering group would strongly like to request that all interested parties attend this meeting, and that no one should feel that by attending this meeting they are obliged to become a comittee member - this is not the case.

     

    More news will be posted on here as soon as it becomes available.

     

    [mod]Please note revised dates above; 12th/13th. F.[/mod]
