Reminders: 

Urgent - Six Bar Volunteers needed

We are still looking to fill a couple of nights during the month. Dates available are: 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 16th & 27th of the month. The commitment is only one night per month and if you pair up with someone it's only every second month!

This is a great way to 'do your part' for the Club like so many others have before you. If we don't have volunteers the bar is un-manned and this can be a problem when we have visiting teams and events on at the Club, not to mention thirsty members who need a drink!

No experience necessary and all training is provided and a few free drinks while you're there! Contact Jacqui in the office if interested.
