Earthworks
A major contribution to the progress so far has been due to the support of Southern Electric and their suppliers. The area that will be occupied by the canoe store has been lowered to the proposed final level, which is similar to the level of the car park. In the short term this improves access and provides an area for material storage that can be accessed from the car park using a "hiab" lorry.
In addition to support from others the Club has also be active in undertaking earthmoving. In the early stages this was by manual labour, but more recently a minidigger and dumper have been used to trim levels around the perimeter of the site in preparation for the permanent fence.
