Hi Guys and Gals,

Exams are done, the sun is shining… let the build-up to the 2007 Student Brake Away officially commence!

With less than three months to go, life in the SBA bunker is super-hectic as we continue to work furiously at making this summer one we will remember for the rest of our lives… or at least one we remember until we get home and sober up. It’ll be awesome anyway. Now for some important stuff: 

FRIDAY 29th JUNE – TEAM MEMBER REGISTRATION DEADLINE 

All teams must have their participating members finalised by this date, including the payment of their deposit. Once this date has passed teams will no longer be able to add new members, and any team members with unpaid deposits will be removed. Any teams with less than two members after this date will also be removed.

By the way, this year the official SBA event t-shirt will have the name of every participant printed on it – how cool is that, which is why we need your final team members names by this deadline.

FRIDAY 29th JUNE – FRANCE DRIVERS’ FINAL PAYMENT DEADLINE

Friday 29th June is also the final date for those travelling through France to make any outstanding payments. This means that we must have received the full £195 per team member by this date. Any teams with payments outstanding following this date will be removed and lose their deposits.

FRIDAY 29th JUNE – TEAM NUMBERS ANNOUNCED

Yes, it is the moment that makes participants and organisers alike wet themselves as they collectively realise ‘it is really happening’. All teams that have paid their entry fees in full are now invited to e-mail info@studentbrakeaway.com with their top 3 choices of team number. The provisional list will be published on the website Friday 29th June and will be added to gradually as more teams complete their payments. Once your team appears on the list then your number will not be changed, so you’ll be safe to run around getting your own decals etc sorted should you wish.

So remember, if you reckon you need to do something Brakeaway-ish this month but you’re not sure when, chances are it’s FRIDAY 29th JUNE.

Finally, Ben and Lianne from Channel 4’s Shipwrecked will be releasing a specially recorded video message for you soon, talking about how excited they are to be coming and how awesome you have to be to want to take part in something like this. Keep checking studentbrakeaway.com for that little treat.

Until next time…

The SBA Team

There’s a new message from the HQ:

Just a quick update from your friendly neighbourhood Student Brakeaway HQ. Our families and friends are bored with us banging on about how awesome this summer is going to be so we thought we’d throw some love your way…

Payment

Remember your respective payment deadlines. If you are boating (as in you are taking the boat down to Spain) then you and all your team members need to be fully paid up by 28th July. If you are driving (as in you are taking the route via Le Mans) then your deadline is the 30th June. May we also remind you that should you elect to complete your payment before these dates then you get to pick your team’s official event number, obviously on a first come, first served basis.

Charity

The Teenage Cancer Trust/Student Brake Away fundraising guide is now available to view or download on the SBA website. Just point your browser at http://www.studentbrakeaway.com/SBAfundraising.pdf and it’s all there. Practical advice on how to facilitate your grand scheme or maybe a little inspiration for those of you who haven’t gotten that far yet… give it a quick look whatever your plans are as chances are that you’ll find something useful. The cool thing is that because it’s for charity you have an excuse to be as brazen and shameless as you like. What an opportunity!

Support

We’re happy to announce that the cast of Channel 4’s flagship youth show ‘Hollyoaks’ will be entering a team this year, the male members of which all our female team authoritatively describes as “fit”, so to any girls out there that you know still deciding whether to go or not: get on it. The 2007 cast of Channel 4’s ‘Shipwrecked’ will also be entering a team in this year’s event to help raise cash and awareness for the TCT. This continues the tradition started by last year’s cast, who helped the SBA’s participants raise over £30,000 for good causes.

That’s all for now, best of luck with your preparations and fund-raising and we’ll see you all soon.

Student Brake Away HQ

For all the german-speaking fans and participants there is a StudiVZ Group dedicated to this event. It is called “Student Brakeaway” – feel free to join!

A small update:

With runningball beeing our only sponsor at the moment we thought that there could be a few more. So we composed a sponsorship mail which we will be sending out to companys that we think might be interested in sponsoring us ..

Let’s hope for the best 🙂
