Bonus Ball Lottery
Alan Woodeson (You can contact him on 07557 9860150
Alan our president, runs a lottery, based on the “Bonus Ball” in the National Lottery. This lottery currently generates some £2K per annum for club funds. It is little more than a bit of fun, but helps the finances for the running of the club.
Basically, you have 2 choices; you either pay:-
50p per week for your chosen Wednesday number(s) & stand to win £12.50, or £1 per week for your chosen Saturday number(s) & stand to win £25.00
(One caveat; if you own a number before the 30th September each year, and that number comes up in the Christmas week’s draw, your winning doubles!!)
Currently, approximately 50 of our members participate, but there are vacancies, so if you are interested please talk to Alan.
There are numbers available for both Wednesday and Saturdays. Contact Allan for details
Message from Greens Secretary
Steve Lambert
Ground Maintenance. Every Monday Morning a small group of Members undertake the maintenance of the Grounds. Help is desperately needed. Can you help to keep the Greens open? Just come along and you will be offered a job to do. Our few helpers are progressing with the trimming of the greens, mowing the outer grasses and the tending of the flower beds. As always we could do with a little more help if there is anyone available for a couple of hours on a Monday morning.
We are thinking of having a painting day or two to paint all the surrounding fences, a lot of painting. This will need volunteers when the weather improves. Talk to Steve or any committee member if you can help or leave a contact number if possible for when a date is set.
Message from our Management Team Pavilion Keys
The club is carrying out a review of clubhouse keys, keyholders and keyholder relevance. The club hold a book of keyholder names which, unfortunately, now has some rather obvious anomalies. We even have deceased members still listed as keyholders. We would therefore ask all members two questions:
