Entry #1 :: 28th Sept 2006As you will have all noticed, the new updates to the
website have just been completed. The new layout and easier guest usage should prove invaluable to the success of BASIK. Please
take into consideration the following changes: -All foootball related articles have been relocated to the
events page. -The Guestbook is reserved for GUESTS, hence the name, and is therefore not to be used as a private chatroom.
Thankyou

Entry #3 :: 02 Oct 2006
Today the first meeting of the founders took place to discuss a few issues that needed to be addressed.
-Firstly, the issue of a logo. Two alternate designs were put forward, and it was eventually decided that
the two should be combined, to form the new design considering that the votes were so evenly distributed.
-There are new plans to have BASIK wrist bands specially manufactured to go on sale quite possibly
later this year. These will be used as a fundraising idea, as well as to get the message out to the wider community about
what BASIK is trying to achieve.
Thanks, BASIK

We've eventually made it to 1000 hits on the site! BASIK would again like to thank all its supporters for
their continued commitment and dedication to such a worthy cause. Just to keep you informed, the registration should
have been submitted by the end of the half term break, if all goes according to plan.
Many thanks, BASIK

Entry #6 :: 23 Oct 2006
Today the first none official BASIK football match took place at Nunroyd park, in yeadon. This venture shows
how the word of BASIK is spreading to the wider community. The event raised £10.00 for the charity and hopefully will be something
that can become a more regular event.
Many thanks to Ste Clark, "Sat Nav" (i.e. luke), Josh, Joal, Zack and Ryan from Westfield Estate for making
this event possible.
The event was organised and afficiated by Ben Parry and Matthew Houston, in the hope that
more people may follow their example.
Secondly, today BASIK recieved an email from Julius Nzai, the missionary who
is currently at the school in kenya that we are trying to support, a copy this email will be given to all who attend
on Friday, as well as this a section of the email has been posted on the new "where does my money go" page.
Many thanks, BASIK

BASIK is certainly going from strength to strength. Today BASIK had the largest number of people attending
the "friday afternoon football" than ever before, with a record 12 players and 10 spectators, it was just unfortunate that
5 of our regular players were unable to make the event for various reasons.
A second point to note is that the registration
forms which will enable BASIK to become a charity are now completed and will be sent off this coming Monday. We can expect
for the application to take 2 or 3 weeks to be returned to us, after which time we should hopefully be a FULLY registered
charity, with the ability to hold more events and expand beyond what we are currrently able to do.
Thanks for your
time, BASIK

Entry #8 :: 31 Oct 2006
This week will be the final BASIK match after school on a friday, due to the poor lighting conditions and
the weather beginning to turn for the worse. Of course it would be a shame to abandon these matches completely as obviously
they are the backbone of BASIK as it stands today, as well as it being a very enjoyable occasion for everybody involved. BASIK
would be very grateful for an suggestions regarding alternate venues or solutions to the problem in hand. If you do have any
ideas please contact us at justbasik@hotmail.co.uk or speak to a member.
Thanks for your continued support and understanding, BASIK
