We would first of all like to extend a warm welcome to our new members who have joined us this year.

These were proving to be hazardous to our model boats, where fouling the props was becoming a problem. Those of us with yachts were also experiencing difficulties. It was decided that our members would try to sort the problem out themselves by donning waders and raking out as much weed as possible. It proved to be an onerous task, but we managed to clear large amounts of growth and debris etc. In actual fact, this really was a job for the council as the lake is part of a local park, so we approached them with a view to them clearing even more of the debris.
