Litter Problems

Once again the problem with litter on the waters.

Nigel was badly effected last season and whilst most members don't leave litter there is still a problem. If there is litter around the waters we ask you to pick it up even though it may not be your litter. Take it off the water you can always put it in the litter bins on the car park when you go back to your car.
