February 2005 If you've had the opportunity to check out a home game at Elings Park or visit the Santa Barbara 7's in August, hopefully you've seen that we've got something special here in Santa Barbara. As President of the Grunion RFC and the SB Rugby Association, I'm asking you for your support by purchasing a lifetime membership or making a donation to the SB Rugby Association so that we can continue to grow and build our club & rugby association. To bring you up to date, the club is entering its 27th year in Southern California Rugby. Last year the club finished 2nd in Div. II and finished 10th at Nationals in Rhode Island. The club also had a strong 7's season finishing off as Cup Champions of the Santa Barbara 7's for first time since the inaugural tournament 7 years prior. This year the club finished an impressive pre-season which included hosting two kiwi sides, the SCRFU Griffins and 2 Div. I teams in preparation for the 2005 season, and it's paying dividends as the 1st XV is 3-0 in league play with maximum points and has aspirations of returning to the National stage and improving on our performance last year. Thanks to Bob Schwartz's hard work as mgr. of the Fossils the Old Boys have hosted both the LA Smog and Los Jaguars in the past 4 months and the Old Boys are planning on entering the Catalina Tournament in May. This past weekend at Elings was a snapshot of SB Rugby. At Elings Park, we hosted the UCSB women, Channel Island U19's as well as the Old Boys all on the same day as the Grunion's home match with SLO…on other weekends it has been Westmont College & the UCSB mens' sides. At Elings Park we've bought/installed two sets of goal posts, donated 2 sets of bleachers and recently purchased a storage shed for our equipment & gear and if you've been out to a home game the food is first class and there is plenty of Foster's and Grunion/Fossils gear for you to support the home side. It's great to see more & more old & new faces coming out on game day! For a one-time fee of $350 you will receive LIFETIME MEMBERSHIP status (over 35 years of age) with the club. After this season the cost will be going up to $500. That includes the following club entitlements: 1) Free from club annual dues for life. 2) Eligible to play for Grunion Torpedoes or Fossils Old Boys side. 3) All game fees waived (Free socials). 4) Free Canterbury of New Zealand Grunion Tracksuite & recognized as an honored member of the Grunion RFC. 5) Last but not least…FREE BEER at home game beer gardens (Courtesy of FOSTER'S). I hope you will become a LIFETIME MEMBER of the Grunion RFC and supporter of rugby in Santa Barbara! Directions: Make a check payable to the "Grunion RFC" for $350.

June 2004 On behalf of the Grunion RFC, I want to invite you to become a lifetime member of the Grunion RFC. In an effort to raise funds for the club and to increase old boy participation we are embarking on an aggressive membership drive. We need your support! To bring you up to date, the club just finished its 26th season competing in Southern California, finishing 2nd in a very competitive Division II. We fell short to San Fernando Valley in the Southern Cal Finals at a packed Harder Stadium. The final was an incredible game going into sudden death overtime with the Grunion scoring 3 tries to San Fernando's 2.the difference being a few missed kicks. The game was a testament to the longstanding rivalry between SFV and the Grunion. Fortunately, we still received a berth for the USA Rugby Round of 16 Tournament in Newport, Rhode Island where we went 1-1 and finished 10th in the country overall. The guys have gotten a taste of Nationals and intend on returning next year. This summer we look forward to hosting the 7th annual Santa Barbara 7's Rugby Tournament at Elings Park on August 21st. Last years tournament included 27 teams from throughout Southern California. We also have Fiesta coming up at the end of July and the Club will once again setup and run the taco booth as a fundraiser for the Special Olympics. We are also looking to further contribute to the new home of Grunion Rugby.Elings Park, where former Grunion Mike Warren is the executive director. In 2003 we bought new goal posts for the field and this summer we are purchasing new bleachers for the upper field in addition to the guys volunteering at park events. Be sure and come on out and volunteer at the Taco Booth, sit in the Firestone Beer Garden at the 7's tournament, or put on the boots at the annual Santa Barbara Rugby Day on October 30th. For a one-time fee of $350 you will receive LIFETIME MEMBERSHIP status (over 35 years of age) with the club. That includes the following club entitlements: 1) Free from club annual dues for life. 2) Eligible to play for Grunion Torpedoes or Fossils Old Boys side. 3) All game fees waived (Free socials). 4) Recognized as an honored member of the Grunion RFC. 5) Last but not least.FREE BEER at home game beer gardens (Courtesy of Heineken).
