Members are encouraged to attend work parties to help keep the lodge in good order and reduce reliance on costly paid labour. Work parties are also an opportunity for meeting other members and to ‘give back’ to the club. Work parties are on weekends, usually on Saturdays. Attendees can stay at the lodge at no cost the night before and/or after the work party and also received $120 credit on their club account for each work party attended to defray costs of attendance.
The following work parties are currently scheduled:
- 23+24 February
- 23+24 March
- 20+21 April
- 18+19 May (cleaning only)
- 1+2 June (if required)
As we are planning landscaping and building work this autumn on the deck and surrounds, these dates may be varied, or additional work parties may be scheduled, so members can assist with that project.
If you or your associates are interested in attending any work party, and have not already done so, please register your interest with the Lodge Maintenance Officer Tony Slatyer at slatyer@velocitynet.com.au. A couple to weeks prior to each work party, Tony will contact all who have registered to advise the kinds of jobs needing to be done and invite participation. “
