Gents and Alison. It is Natwest Cricket Force weekend on April 5/6. This is the weekend when we bend our backs in service of the club. Last year we transformed the pav from the antiquated shack that you see here to our own dear Wick.
You will remember that the outside of the Wick was creosoted. That we painted the metal detail. That we painted the walls downstairs. That we re-cricketed the bar with memorabilia (and found Frank in the cupboard). A new flag was run up the pole. Nets were re-erected. And so much more.
Because only about 15 people turned up (curse you stay aways) the usual suspects came back week after week for most of April to finish the job off. Which was a right pain in the Harris. So this year, could you ALL see your way clear to lending at least half a day on Saturday 5th?
For those of you filled with impatience and not prepared to suffer fools gladly of course there will be milling around and a lack of authoritative leadership on the day. It's the Wick. We're a cricket club. There is not a professional site foreman amongst us. Get over it. Heck you may even have to stand around for half an hour talking to your cricket mates while we work out how best to use your supreme talents!
Please email Wickman to tell him that you will turn up and to volunteer for work. If you are hiding any special talents (painting, scorebox renovation, putting up nets, driveway clearance etc) please tell him...
