Working Party

Working Party 16 March 2002 - Richard Cannon

We were extremely fortunate that after two very wet days Saturday was dry until mid afternoon.

Although there had only been a couple of replies to the Email publicising the working party there was excellent support with 19 members helping out.

Many tasks were completed including:

·	the trailer park tidied and strimmed

·	the frontage cleaned and the chains painted

·	windows cleaned

·	clubhouse inside cleaned

·	new floor fitted to start hut

·	new shutter fitted to a club bay to replace that that had been blown away

·	the garden tidied

·	a lot of rubbish cleared away from around the bosun store

·	the PIR in the car park replaced

·	the telephone wiring repaired

·	the gully along the back of the club house cleared out

·	life bouys and posts cleaned up

·	rubbish was burnt or taken away in a trailer.

And all this was achieved before lunch.

The real highlight of the day was the super lunch prepared by Diana Carpenter. Every one sat down to a free lunch of jacket potatoes, chicken, chili or vegetarian hot fillings, and bread sticks, with enough for second helpings. Many thanks to Diana for preparing us such a vast amount of delicious food. It helped make it a great social occasion.

Also thanks to every one for all the work they did to get the Club in fine shape before sailing starts.
