Dear Friends of Whittington CC,
This is just a quick note to say a huge thank you to everybody that has helped over the NatWest CricketForce Weekend just gone – on Saturday, there were 58 people helping and on Sunday, we had even more with 77 people registered. Again, you have helped us make this weekend a fantastic success....
We started off with a big list of jobs that we needed to do, both around the ground and the pavilion and we have made great progress on all of them. Over the weekend we have:
· Finished assembling & painting the picket fencing in front of the pavilion
· Re-painted the whole of the picket fence around the ground (around 2000 individual pickets!!)
· Built fences around the LPG tank and waste processing system behind the pavilion
· Painted the external woodwork on the pavilion
· Painted the walls in 3 rooms inside the pavilion
· Started the installation of the kitchen
· Laid slabs on the path behind the pavilion
· Laid slabs in the bin store area
· Run in more rabbit fencing on one side of the ground
· Stained the benches around the ground and new tables
· Landscaped areas around the car park
· Cleaned and assembled the sight screens
· Collected a huge number of stones from the outfield
· And last but not least, provided a steady flow of food and drink to our many helpers
Once again, a big thank you to everybody, with particular recognition to our guests – The team from NatWest (18 of them!!) plus Alan Hill and the Staffordshire Emerging Players Team.
