• Members Trolley Shed: It was proposed that the club members shed could be funded by proceeds from special events and part club funds subject to sufficient interest from members who would wish to use the facility. There are currently 25 club users of the existing shed. It was decided to gauge the member’s level of interest in a secure store facility via social media prior to making any commitments.
