Greetings Graftonites,
We're all extremely excited about the start of the Winter Mixed! It's a wonderful, fun way, to make it through the wintry months that lie ahead of us. But before that, several items in this week's bulletin, so do read on:
- COMMITTEE MEETING MINUTES
- BAR OPENING TIMES
- SUNDAY TENNIS SOCIAL HOURS
- LADIES' NIGHT TENNIS SOCIAL
- WHEN CAN GUESTS PLAY TENNIS?
- DATES FOR YOUR DIARY
***If you want to put an announcement in next Monday’s broadcast, the only way to do so is by sending your broadcast to graftoncomms@gmail.com by Friday 6pm.***
COMMITTEE MEETING MINUTES
As we all know this club is run by a team of enthusiastic volunteers. The Committee met on Sunday 18th October to discuss some of the more pressing matters. We've attached the minutes of that meeting. Questions? Suggestions? Words of praise? Please email:
graftoncommittee@gmail.com
BAR OPENING TIMES
Due to the weather getting colder, the fact that we are outside only and the difficulty in sourcing volunteers we have decided on the below:
Bar will run on Tuesdays and Wednesdays only.
It will be a bottle, soft drink and spirit bar only.
To get rid of the draught (only star and Guinness left) there will be a 25 percent discount on draught.
Weekend bar
- if you have an event or lots of players down for a session and you would like the bar then please contact Dani with 7 days notice and we can endeavour to sort something.
Lights will be via tokens
Apologies for any inconvenience and thank you for your understanding here. Hopefully in January we will all be in a nice new warm clubhouse :).
SUNDAY TENNIS SOCIAL HOURS
Please note that the Sunday Social Tennis session is 1300-1600 now that the clocks have gone back.
LADIES' NIGHT TENNIS SOCIAL
(Fri 30 Oct, from 7pm)
Our next Friday night social is
30th October
. Kick off the weekend by coming along and mixing in for a couple of hours’ Ladies doubles tennis, followed by a few socially distanced drinks.
From 7pm.
Clay courts. Lights are free!
WHEN CAN GUESTS PLAY TENNIS?
A quick reminder that the below are what we consider peak and off peak hours:
WEEKDAYS:
8am - 4pm = off peak
4pm - 10pm = peak
WEEKENDS:
8am - 4pm = peak
4pm - 10pm = off peak
Non-members can play during off-peak hours. This is a welcome change. Please be sure to transfer the guest fee to Grafton's bank account. We also ask that guests, like members, scan the QR code on the NHS Covid-19 app for track and trace purposes. Thanks.
