As such, we no longer exist as a "club" because we are no longer tied to a staff member.

Furthermore, our our previous paperwork mentor never gave us the login credentials for TIMS. This means we can't register for events, even if we find a new staff member and a new mentor. We might even need to register for an entire new team.

If anyone has any advice on what we can do under these tight circumstances, could you please tell me?
4464 is facing similar (though less dire) circumstances. We're currently in the process of working out a possible merger with another local team. Have you considered doing this?
