Clean - Club!
Our Fall Clean-up was a great success with most of the tasks being completed before the rain started. Forty members braved foul weather predictions and pay parking to get the club ready for the winter. The yard was swept, the clubhouse cleaned and organized. Training boats stored, chairs and tables brought in from the deck. The BBQ cleaned. Ready for the weather to come.
