LITTER
We as a club were absolutely disgusted last week with the rubbish that was left on our grounds, it showed a blatant disregard for our surroundings and for the welfare of those that use our fantastic facilities, the bin located at the playground has now been emptied but we would ask in future if it happens to be full we would ask not to throw rubbish in an already full bin, as everyone will appreciate in the times we are in the bin is not monitored daily.
