CLUB CLEAN UP DAY – SUNDAY 7 NOVEMBER 10 AM

We are looking for as many volunteers as possible to come to the club and help tidy up the grounds: gathering up leaves; removing moss from courts; small amount of painting of clubhouse outer walls.  Any time you can spare would be very much appreciated.  We hope to be finished in a couple of hours.
