NEW WORKS

The Club has completed a new area for serving food or drinks etc. at the Dutton Park end of the Under Cover Pavilion, Thanks to Colin O'Leary who completed most of the works with assistance from Paul Smith, Steve Pearson and Ellbourn Engineering (materials). The Club used the new area for food sales at the Rodeo we held recently and as the Bar for the Long Track Motor Cycle event. The Committee thanks all those involved in this project which will be put to good use over the coming years for events held at the complex.

Colin with the assistance from Marcus Hearl and Mark Harris have updated the Ladies and Men's Toilets. The Kitchen is presently under going a revamp in readiness for the upcoming Race Days, with a re-design of the sinks and clean up section.

Two air conditioners have been purchased and are in the process of being installed in the main Dining and Bar area to improve comfort on warm days.

Maintenance is always an ongoing issue with ageing infrastructure, It's being worked on continuously by Colin, the Committee and the Volunteers.
