Following on from my forum posting, our WYC league is well and truly up and running with expert team managers Don Sims and Larry Lamberton (Team Lardon aka The Coffee Club) at the top, followed (not that closely) by Wild Times (managed by the Commodore himself).

Bar Committee Announcement
Posted: Wednesday, 09 June, 2010
After considerable discussion and a vote amongst committee members it was agreed that we would temporally delay increasing bar prices (as a result of the March budget and supplier increases) until outcome of the next Mini budget on 22nd June, so as to avoid increasing bar prices twice in one month. Revised Bar prices will be introduced before end of June based on changes in the March 2010 budget, increased suppliers prices as well as the anticipated VAT increase in the June Budget.

Any old kitchens?

We need to replace the kitchen in one of the WYC tenanted properties. If any members are planning on replacing their current kitchen (and it is in good repair), please could you contact the office. We will need the whole unit (not just doors). Many thanks. WYC

Race officers required for Evening Series
Posted: Saturday, 29 May, 2010
We need race officers for the Evening Series. The next race is on Wednesday 2 June. Please put your names on the board in the club. If there are no volunteers there will be no race - and that would be a pity.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Posted: Thursday, 13 May, 2010
The General Committee wish to draw members' attention to Club Rule 44 which states that "A member introducing a visitor shall on entering the Club premises insert the visitor's name and address in the visitors' book and sign the entry..........Non members shall not visit the Club premises more than six times in any one year". The Visitors' Book is being regularly checked and we are aware of offenders (who will receive a letter). More importantly, we risk losing our licence if we are inspected and found to be breaking the conditions of our Club Premises Certificate. WYC.
