SEPTEMBER NEWSLETTER
TEN PIN BOWLING - This is going to be on Saturday 12 September at 7pm at Bowl Line. $16 for two games plus discounted drinks. Please let me know by Thursday if you plan on coming so I can confirm how many lanes we need.
WORKING BEE will be on Saturday 26 September starting at 10am. This will give us a good chance to spruce up the pavilion and surrounds. Would appreciate as many members as possible to help spread the load.
OPENING DAY will be on Saturday 3 October starting at 1pm (weather dependent). We will start with the life members roll up, followed by a couple of short, friendly games to get back into the swing of things. Please bring a plate to share for afternoon tea.
HAVE A GO DAY will be on Sunday 4 October starting at 11am. This is a super important date as we need as many new faces as we can to walk through our Golden Gate. New membership is the upmost priority this season, so please, please, please encourage anyone you know to come and have a go. Free BBQ lunch.
NEW SPONSOR – Super Liquor Green Island have come on board as a new sponsor. We will be getting all our alcohol from them going forward as opposed to Cableways. They have given us a very good deal on all our products and we’re happy to be able to keep it local.
INTERCLUB UNAVAILABILTY SHEETS – Men’s and Juniors are already up. Women’s will be shortly.
TABLES FOR SALE – our wooden trestle tables have been replaced so they are now surplus to requirements. If anyone would like to make an offer on one or two, please let Greg know. We have eight available for sale.
WINDOW REPLACEMENT – The large windows that run along the green side of the Pavillion are all being replaced next Monday – Wednesday. They are being replaced with aluminium frames and double glazing. As it will be an active work site, we ask that no one visit the club during these days due to Health & Safety concerns.
HEALTH & SAFETY – remember that if there are any accidents at the club, please report to Evan (H&S officer) so he can fill out an incident report.
MURAL UPDATE – The mural project is moving into the artist engagement stage, with Mural Working Group connecting with representatives from the South Dunedin community art trail and seeking practical advice from them. Potential artists are now being explored, including the possibility of collaboration, while community feedback continues to support a design that reflects Green Island’s history and its transition through to modern times. The next steps are to refine the artist brief, seek indicative pricing, and gather advice on wording and supporting information for the Resource Consent application.
