Additional Notes

To those of you that have constantly not been happy about our decisions, thank you for your support. You have not made it any easier for us. Please remember we are all volunteers and as far as I’m aware the first committee that has had to deal with a worldwide pandemic, president and steward leaving on the same day and not being able to hold an AGM to get a full committee. We are only working on half the required amount, some have left for various reasons but mainly it is the lack of support we are getting from a minority and the constant criticism. As you aware we are in need of committee. If you think you can do better please join us but be aware there is a huge commitment of your spare time – fortnightly meeting regular rota duties and being part of a team that is trying their best to keep the club running. I personally would like to thank those past and present committees that have done this thankless task

The present committee are trying to ensure the club has a future, is viable and safe.
