BAR VOLUNTEERS
We need new volunteers to help out on the bars. All persons working on the bars are volunteers and your assistance is needed. Training is available and you will be needed only very occasionally on Thursday nights and for a few hours at functions when volunteers will be rostered for a short period during an event. This is a great way to meet people in the Village and to make new friends. Both men and women are most welcome.
If you are interested, please contact Jim on #607.

If you are interested then contact the Chairperson or Secretary of the Residents' Committeelisted on the residents committee page, who will put you in contact with our welcomer. You can be sure that the welcomer has a good knowledge of village activities.

We are fortunate in having a Community Centre with a main hall, a bar and kitchen, dining room, library, gymnasium, pool and spa, billiards and snooker room, access to a croquet lawn, together with several other meeting rooms and administration offices.
Separate and some distance away is our Clubhouse Sports building which provides a further bar, access to the bowling green, the tennis court and bocce lawn, while down stairs is a bocce/ computer room.
Located at the caravan park near gate one is the wood work room where the wood work group meet.
