THE MELBOURNE Football Club’s volunteer brigade is getting ready for a big season ahead, helping out on match days and with assorted functions and events. 

Their involvement also stretches to on ground activities, with Cheer Squad coordinator Lorraine Beaman recently being named as the Club’s Volunteer of the Year.

Of course, it is vital that all those who are part of this very important group can be contacted. 

Any registered volunteers who have not yet received their 2012 availability form are asked to contact Julie Lockhart on (03) 9569 7794 before 25 February, so that records can be updated and contact maintained.
