I am looking for a couple of volunteers to help sell the activity tickets on Sunday for the Open Day. So if you are coming to the Club and could spare some time then please give Heather a call on 01480 810478.
Sunday 21st June is the Grafham Open Day.
We have teamed up with Grafham Water Centre to offer a range of activities including Archery, Sailing for beginners, High ropes, Low ropes and the mobile Climbing Tower, in addition to our normal RIB and Committee boat rides.

From Monday 29th June the Top Deck Bar will be closed for refurbishment. It is planned for the works to take four weeks. A bar service will continue to be available during this time from the ground floor Protest Room. Wednesday evening supper is to be served in the Wet Bar.
The refurbishment includes changing the majority of furniture, consequently we will be disposing of six large 3 seater sofas and seventy stacking chairs. If anyone has a use for any or all of these, maybe in a club room or village hall, they are free to a good home. Please contact Heather in the office.
