There will be a meeting upstairs in the clubhouse on Friday 3rd July at 6.30pm for all Nipper Parents and Volunteers. 

Two work parties will be set up to provide the following:

 

  • Beach/Competition work party – to ensure the smooth running of the event.

Marking out the event areas – laying the running track

Putting the tents, equipment enclosure and banners in place.

Help out with parking arrangements.

 

  • Catering/Fund raising – we provide food for all the event officials, invited guests and also to sell to competitors and spectators.

 

The organising committee for this event is chaired by Debbie Clifton-Griffiths, club fundraiser thecgs@sky.com  if you are able to help please put your name down on the  rota for whichever times will suit.
