WORKING BEE PAINTS CLUBHOUSE
A big effort was put in one Sunday morning in February to get the front of the clubhouse painted.
A team of 10 members scraped, sanded and painted to get the job done. The main effort was by
our group of regular social members, headed up by professional painter Ty Newton. He brought
all his gear for the job – drop sheets, scrapers, sanders, cans and brushes.
The other social members were Alan Birkett, Brian Emmerton, Simon Moore, Les Fawkes and
Ken Smith. They were supported by Curley Petersen, Warwick Moody, Steve Lawrence and John
Lewis.
A lovely cooked breakfast with tea and coffee was served up by Kay Gesch and Heather Loynes,
which was much appreciated by the workers.
All these members are thanked giving up their Sunday morning to help make the clubhouse look a
lot smarter.
