I have finally had a chance to put pen to paper after a hectic few weeks since my holiday.
First of all, I would like to welcome Mike Stubbs and Barry Downer to the committee and not forgetting our Lyn Avis is back. I am looking forward to another good year with our new committee.
It is with regret that I must inform you that a few weeks ago drugs were found in the men's toilets. We have taken action and informed the police who will be making unannounced visits to the club.
We operate a zero tolerance policy towards drugs and that anyone using or knowingly introducing someone into the club who takes drugs will be permanently excluded. We also have a duty of care to our members and their guests.
(it is the responsibility of the licence holder to ensure that we are rigorous in attempting to deter drug use and supply. Failure to do so could result in a review of the licence under Section 51 of the Licensing Act 2003, upon which various sanctions, such as stringent conditions or removal of licensable activity, could be imposed on the licence.
We have lots of functions already planned for the coming year.
19th May Sonia, Adam along with entertainments team put on an afternoon tea for the Royal Wedding it was a brilliant afternoon thank you to all that supported. We are looking at putting on another afternoon tea in the near future so watch this space.
7th June New president's function with Decades entertaining us, we danced the night away. What a fantastic night it was too I am sure we will not be seeing the last of them. Thanks to Steve and Lyn Avis for the pulled pork baps they worked their socks off and thanks to Paul Barnden for the fab disco as usual.
We have 2 garden monitors and they are looking at putting a rota together for grass cutting and general gardening please contact Mike Stubbs via email [email protected] if you could please spare some time to support. The garden is looking lovely thanks to Lyn for cutting the grass and Mike and Sheila Stubbs for doing the lovely hanging baskets and tubs looking very good.
