Held 9th June

Huge thanks to those who took part! Keith was kept out of trouble painting fences.  The patio was tidied and we started a deep clean in the mens’ changing rooms, Ladies and Disabled to be done shortly.

Celia has kindly provided news of what happened with our club tennis teams in May. You can view this here.

Hello and welcome from your new Social Secretary!

Before I go on to tell you about our fantastic raffle prize, I first just wanted to take this opportunity to introduce myself and to say a huge thank you, on behalf of everyone at the club, to my predecessor, Sarah Stout, for all her time and energy as social secretary. I know she will be greatly missed by all on the committee. Fortunately for me, Sarah has kindly agreed to help as I get familiar with the role. I have very big shoes to fill!!!

Also a big thank you to those members who currently volunteer their time to help run events at the club. It is very much appreciated. I am hoping to expand the list of helpers, so if anyone else can spare an hour or two of their time, that would be great!

In order to have a mix of different social events, which appeal to as many members as possible, I am always keen to hear your suggestions. Please email me at andrewking31@virginmedia.com with any ideas you may have.

One of our members, Colin Gilbey, has kindly donated the use of his Beach Hut for a week (Saturday 27th July – Saturday 3rd August 2019) as a raffle prize.

Situated between Manor Steps and Portman Ravine, the hut comes complete with the use of: 2 Sun Loungers, 2 Reclining Chairs, 2 Plastic Chairs, 2 Parasols, 2 Hob Gas Ring, Wind Break (and hammer!) Tea, coffee and sugar are also provided!

To be in with a chance of winning this much sought after prize, raffle tickets can be purchased from the clubhouse at £5 a strip.

The lucky winner will be announced at the forthcoming Members Open Day on Saturday 29th June 2019.

Thank you to Jan Lawson for sourcing new door mats. This is much appreciated and will hopefully help with the endless task of trying to keep the sand outside.
